Founded in 1983, Just for Laughs is a popular comedy festival held every year in Montreal and Quebec that brings together well-known comics from around the world for a celebration of all things hilarious.

This year, event organizers have partnered with Meta to bring the long-running event to life in VR on Meta Quest 2 headsets. Next month, users can sign in to Meta’s social VR metaverse Horizont Világok to catch the premiere of Körülvett, an unscripted comedy event from the festival that has audience members participating in the actual show.

The virtual event will feature a number of recognizable acts, including Nicole Byer, Nikki glaser, Pete Holmes, Fortune Feimster, Moshe Kasher, Natasha Leggeroés Mózes Vihar.

“Filmed in July 2022 at the Just For Laughs festival in Montréal, Surrounded is set in the round—a simple yet effective format where the audience inspires the jokes,” said Meta in an official blog update. “VR attendees can mix and mingle with friends and fellow comedy fans.”

Just for Laughs’ Körülvett will premiere on September 9th in Horizont Világok, after which point it will be available on-demand. Simply visit the helyszínek world and make a b-line for the Körülvett színház.

In addition to the unscripted show, Meta will also host an airing of the festival’s discovery showcase Új arcok, which has introduced the world to megastars such as Kevin Hart, Amy Schumer, Kumail Nanjiani, and Jo Koy.
