A record-breaking comedian is coming back to the Okanagan.

James Mullinger has been selling out shows since he moved to Canada from Britain in 2015. The last time he was in the Okanagan he sold out two shows in 2019.

Mullinger returns to the Okanagan Valley this April with shows in Kelowna, Vernon and Penticton.

Mullinger has featured in several stand-up specials that have appeared on Hulu and Amazon Prime and tours regularly to packed houses across Canada and England. He was also the subject of a major motion picture about his early years in stand up, starring actors from Twilight, Downton Abbey and Notting Hill and comedians such as Jimmy Carr, Gilbert Gottfried, Mike Ward and Pete Zedlacher. 

In spite of being British, Mullinger is one of Canada's biggest cheerleaders and spends his time promoting our country across the world and raising money for charities and non-profits. James has raised more than $100,000 for Canadian charities. He has also become one of Canada's top comics, being nominated for both a Just For Laughs comedy award and a Canadian Comedy Award for Best Live Show.

Mullinger will be in the Okanagan with his, Embrace Where You Live show, hitting the Mary Irwin Theatre in Kelowna on April 15, The Green Pub in Vernon on April 16 and The Cleland Theatre in Penticton on April 17. Tickets are available here.
