D.J. Demers

D.J. Demers plays the Halifax Live Comedy Club on Friday, September 11 and Saturday, September 12, 2026. Both nights start at 8:00 PM, with doors opening at 7:00 PM. He's billed as a Special Presentation, and he's not alone on the bill: featured comedian Catherine Robertson opens for him.

If you're not familiar with his name, his resume does the talking. He's appeared twice on The Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon, three times on Conan, and has done spots on America's Got Talent and Just For Laughs. He's also a Juno nominee. Beyond the stage, he created the cult-favourite series ONE MORE TIME, which you can find on YouTube.

He's playing at the Halifax Live Comedy Club, which describes itself as the only independent comedy club in Halifax, Nova Scotia. They make a point of pairing local talent with touring comedians in an intimate room, and this run fits that pattern. The club is supported by a few community partners, including Jake Hirsch Entertainment, The Comedy Stand, The Pint Halifax, and Boatskeg Distillers.

Tickets are C$20 in advance. It's a 19+ room, so bring a valid photo ID. Seating is general admission and first come first served, so if you've got a preference for where you sit, you'll want to get there early. Doors open at 7:00 PM, and the show starts at 8:00 PM on both Friday and Saturday.
