Open Mic: Blenz Comedy Night
A New Chapter for Comedy in Milton
The Milton Comedy Collective is proud to partner with Blenz Coffee to present The Littlest Comedy Competition—a stand-up comedy competition celebrating emerging comedians from across Milton and the surrounding region.
For the next several months, our monthly open mic will transform into a series of competition nights, giving local comics the chance to perform in front of a live audience and compete for a spot in the championship final.
The Competition
Three qualifying rounds will take place at Blenz Coffee and Aquanova in Hamilton.
The winner of each qualifying round will advance to the championship final on October 27 at Blenz Coffee.
The champion of The Littlest Comedy Competition will earn a paid performance spot at Giving Back Comedy, taking place on November 6 at Guelph Little Theatre.
In addition to celebrating local comedy, a portion of the proceeds from Giving Back Comedy will be donated to The Bench, helping support an important community cause.
Who Can Apply?
Our goal is to create opportunities for comedians from Milton, Mississauga, Brampton, Oakville, Burlington, Guelph, Hamilton, Halton Region, and surrounding communities west of Toronto to gain valuable stage time and become part of a growing comedy community.
How to Apply
Use the application form below to apply for The Littlest Comedy Competition.

Building Comedy Community
The Milton Comedy Collective was created to provide more opportunities for local comedians to perform, connect, and grow.
The Littlest Comedy Competition is the next step in that mission, bringing together audiences, comedians, local businesses, and community partners to celebrate live comedy while supporting a meaningful cause.
Whether you're stepping onto the stage or cheering from the audience, we hope you'll join us for this exciting new chapter of comedy in our community.

We’re also available to partner with organizations to produce comedy shows that help them raise money for their missions. If you’re interested in working together, we’d love to hear from you. Just reach out.
Bringing people together one laugh at a time
We believe comedy has the unique power to unite people. By creating shared experiences filled with laughter, we build stronger bonds within the Greater Toronto Area community. Come for the laughs, stay for the connection!
