North American Laughter Conference

Hello and hahaha Laughter Friends,

Thank you so much for your interest in the North American Laughter Conference – Celebrating Community Through Laughter. We’re excited to share that a limited number of pre-sale tickets will be available very soon.

We will be releasing 20 pre-sale tickets on January 25 at 7:00 AM Mountain Standard Time at www.laughterconference.ca.

Ticket pricing is as follows (CAD):

  • Pre-Sale: $425 (January 25)
  • Early Bird: $475 (February 25)
  • Regular Price: $525 (June 25)

The conference fee covers the entire program from Friday afternoon to Sunday afternoon, including all speakers, sessions, events, and activities. It also includes two dinners (Friday and Saturday) and two lunches (Saturday and Sunday).

Accommodation, transportation to and from White Rock, and breakfasts are not included. You will book your own accommodation at the Ocean Promenade Hotel. To receive a preferred booking rate of $25 CAD off per night, please call 1-888-976-2326 and quote “Laughter Conference.”

For breakfast, you are welcome to self-cater in your hotel room or enjoy one of the many local cafés nearby. After registering, you will also be invited to join our private Facebook group (to be set up shortly), where attendees can connect to carpool or share accommodation if you wish.

All conference attendees are invited to be featured on our conference webpage.

If you have applied to present at the conference, we will begin working on the program schedule in mid-February and will be in touch by February 28. Conference presenters who are selected will be offered a discounted conference ticket, and details will be shared directly. (Apologies for the delay on this as I (Lora) am in New Zealand on a family holiday so we’ll be meeting after I get back to go over our amazing applications!)

FAQs and additional information can be found at www.laughterconference.ca. Please feel free to reach out if you have any questions.

We can’t wait to welcome you to White Rock for a joyful and connective weekend of laughter and community.

With warm and hearty laughter,

Lora, Kelly, Alexa, Cynthia, Tracy, Carla, Tamar, Heidi and Nicole
