The Saskatchewan Roughrider Foundation is hosting its annual Pigskins & Punchlines comedy fundraiser on May 2, 2026, at the Regina Performing Arts Centre in Regina, Saskatchewan. This community event raises money for school programs that teach local youth about mental health awareness and emotional well-being.

The night is presented by Regina Plumbing and Heating and features comedian Big Daddy Tazz as the headlining act. Fans who attend the show will also have the opportunity to meet players from the Saskatchewan Roughriders.

All money raised from the event goes toward the Win With Wellness program. This initiative sends football players into schools across the province to provide students with tools and resources to help them handle life’s challenges and build resilience.

The foundation was established in 2019 to support community health, education, and amateur football. Organizers report that tickets are selling quickly for the fundraiser as it continues to be a key part of the foundation’s annual efforts to support local youth.
