The Just for Laughs Festival, presented by Videotron in association with Loto-Québec, announced on Wednesday its lineup for its 2017 edition, including Jerry Seinfeld, Judd Apatow, Ali Wong and Sugar Sammy.

The annual festival, held in Montreal, features gala events, stand-up performances, panels, and live tapings during its run from July 12-31. In addition, Variety will present its annual 10 Comics to Watch panel and performance, along with a cocktail party to celebrate the honorees.
