Yuk Yuk’s Winnipeg comedy club has shut its doors after a struggling run, with low attendance cited as the main reason — despite booking top Canadian talent. The Fort Garry Hotel, which housed the club, says the partnership was positive but they’re pivoting to a new use for the space. Meanwhile, Winnipeg’s comedy scene remains vibrant, with Rumor’s thriving and even accepting old Yuk Yuk’s gift cards. The historic hotel is also up for sale, with the Manitoba Métis Federation showing interest — signaling a wave of change in the city’s cultural landscape.
