Last month, the organizers at Montreal’s Just For Laughs comedy festival announced an absolutely killer lineup of performers that included Jerry Seinfeld, Gad Elmaleh, Tom Segura, Ali Wong and Trevor Noah, among many others. Looking to outdo themselves, the folks at JFL have just announced a handful of additional performers added to the roster that are going to make this year’s festival one for the record books.

Also appearing at JFL this year will be:

Jeff Ross and Dave Attell will be performing a show called Bumping Mics for three midnight events at L’Astral, from Wednesday, July 26th to Friday, July 28th.

Craig Ferguson will perform his current stand-up show, The New Deal, for one night only at Monument-National on Saturday, July 29th.

Yamaneika Saunders will be performing alongside Robert Kelly, Big Jay Oakerson, Godfrey and Jimmy Carr during The Nasty Show. Ari Shaffir will act as “master of ceremonies” throughout the multi-night event. All 11 shows will take place at Metropolis from July 19th to July 28th.

The podcasts My Dad Wrote a Porno and Wedlock with Kurt and Lauren have been added to the festival’s podcast series. The former will take place Thursday, July 27th at 11:30 a.m. in the Grand Salon, the latter on Saturday, July 29th at 4:30 p.m. in the Ovation Room at the Hyatt Regency Montreal.

Two panels have been updated: Melissa Leo, Michael Angarano and Jake Lacy have been added to the previously announced panel for Showtime’s I’m Dying Up Here, created by Jim Carrey and Michael Aguilar, who will also be in attendance. That takes place on Thursday, July 27th at 9:30 p.m. at Maison Symphonique at Place Des Arts. Meanwhile, Vice Principals executive producer David Gordon Green has been added to the Vice Principals panel, which will also feature series creators Danny McBride and Jody Hill, to provide some additional insight into the show’s production. That panel will go down Saturday, July 29th at 5:30 p.m. at the Hyatt Grand Salon Opera.

The list of performers for JFL is still growing, so be sure to check back with The IBang for more details as they come out!
