Known for his relaxed delivery and quick wit, his unpredictable style makes for big laughs and unforgettable crowd work moments.
In just 6 years in stand-up, Faris has been featured at every televised Canadian comedy festival. He made his first festival headline appearance at JFL Toronto in 2025. He has worked with the likes of Hasan Minhaj, Mo Amer, Neal Brennan, and has become a fixture on CBC’s The Debaters. With albums on SiriusXM and CBC Radio, Faris also debuted on CraveTV in season 5 of Roast Battles Canada in 2026. His second album, homesick., was the first comedy album by an Alberta-based comedian to be nominated for a Juno award.
Banff Centre for Arts and Creativity is excited to bring together world-renowned musicians, artists, and writers, as well as passionate audiences for the 2026 Banff Centre Summer Arts Festival. Running throughout May to September, the 2026 festival invites audiences to experience a season of artistic discovery of over 100 free and ticketed events. Tickets are now available for the 2026 Banff Centre Summer Arts Festival!
