After four weeks of competition it all comes down to this; the final countdown, the minute of truth, the clash of the kings! Join us for the final round of this knock out comedy battle to see which fools are truly King of the Hill!

The Grindstone Comedy Festival King of the Hill Improv Competition pits top up-and-coming improv comedians from Edmonton and across Western Canada against each other for a chance at ultimate glory. Over 4 weeks of preliminary rounds improvisers will play in our King of the Hill format, using audience suggestions to create characters, scenes and comedy sketches on the spot. The audience chooses the winner of each round, with the leaders temporarily taking the spot on top of the hill, while the losers fight on to dethrone the Kings. Two finalists each week will be crowned by points assigned through audience applause and continue to the final battle at Grindstone Comedy Fest 2024, with the finalist being crowned Grindstone Comedy Fest's Improviser of the Year!
