Beauty Hacks and Laugh Attacks at Oh My Fest! and Zoofest

Just to add to the festival frenzy going on in town, Zoofest and Oh My Fest! each offer a whole world of programing to fill your July with fun. While Zoofest (July 7 to 30) branches out into a uniquely cool indie humour vibe with everything from straight-up stand-up (by Janeane Garofalo, Andy Dick and George Wallace, among others) to weird yet hilarious stage shows, Oh My Fest! (July 16 and 17) is all about celebrating YouTuber talent from all over Quebec, live and in the flesh. Here are five shows you won’t want to miss at both events.
