Just for Laughs (French: Juste pour rire) is a comedy festival, currently in limbo, that was held each July in Montreal, Quebec, Canada. Founded in 1983, it was the largest international comedy festival in the world.[1] In addition to the festivals themselves, Just for Laughs also develops, produces, and distributes other forms of comedy entertainment, such as television programming.[2]

As of 2024, the festival has been cancelled and its future in Montreal uncertain.[3]
