Rainbow Riot: Pride & Punchlines Edition is back in Winnipeg! Join us at the Gas Station Arts Centre on June 19th at 8:30pm for an incredible night of comedy. Hosted by Les Kiesman, the show features a stellar lineup of queer and queer allied comedians: Aahan Rajput, Shane Thevenot, Danielle Kayahara, Vong Show, Issa Kixen, and headliner Carole Cunningham.

Make it a full night with our free pre-show Comedy Q&A Panel & Open Mic Starting at 5:30pm. It’s a safe, supportive space where you can ask the pros about the craft of comedy and even test your own material on the mic. Don’t miss this amazing opportunity to laugh, learn, and connect with the 2SLGBTQIA+ community.
