Maria Rivadeneyra is a Mexican-born stand-up comedian, writer, and producer based in Vancouver, Canada. Known for her sharp wit, honest storytelling, and charming accent, Maria has quickly made a name for herself in the North American comedy scene. She has opened for renowned comedians including Sofía Niño de Rivera, Richie O’Farrill, Alexa Zuart, and Led Varela, performing for diverse audiences across Canada and Mexico.

Maria’s unique perspective as an immigrant woman navigating life, language, and identity is at the heart of her material. Her show Comedy with an Accent—which highlights immigrant comedians with diverse accents—has sold out multiple times and was featured in The Globe and Mail.

Her work has also been showcased on major media platforms such as Univision, Telemundo, and People en Español magazine, further amplifying her voice as a rising Latina in comedy.

With performances that blend cultural insight, personal struggle, and unapologetic humor, Maria is not just a comedian—you’ll leave her show feeling like you’ve made a new friend (who roasts you lovingly along the way).
