While NYC is having it’s big ol’ New York Comedy Festival, LA isn’t just quietly having another week of the same (albeit, partially open) exciting comedy happening either.

The Vulture Festival is set to return to the Hollywood Roosevelt for an in-person edition on Saturday Nov. 13th and Sunday Nov. 14th. Vulture always assembles some of the most fun, curious, astounding panels and events for their LA based fest and this year is no different.

Just from this initial line-up announcement, there will be a “pre-union for Insecure, Mira Sorvino watching along with a screening of Romy & Michelle’s High School Reunion, a panel for The Great, and an hour of Niecy Nash’s time. Of course, there will be way more announced (probably a showcase of their annual, high profile Comedians You Should and Will Know list?)

For now, you can get tickets and more info at vulturefestival.com. If you’re already all in for this, you can snag a festival pass for $300.

The annual Vulture Festival is probably one of the best collections of panels, screenings, and other strange, but splendid events with cast/creators/icons/etc. (several of whom are comedy folks) who are deep in the cultural zeitgeist (i.e. an AIM chat with PEN15 stars and co-creators Maya Erskine and Anna Konkle that they did last year).

So, ever the inventive festival, Vulture is going virtual with Vulture Festival: In The Nest for this year and they will feature yet another very impressive stack of live-streamed events including:

Rachel Bloom in conversation with her fifth-grade bully
Vulture Honorary Degree: Whoopi Goldberg
The Winkler Method: A Henry Winkler Acting Class
State of the Union with Samantha Bee and Rebecca Traister
Screening of HBO’s new series How To with John Wilson
A Night with The New Girl Boys

This time, we’re all blessed with not having to find parking in or around The Roosevelt Hotel in Hollywood Blvd. and rushing in and around from room to room so you won’t miss too much of any one of these events.

Vulture Festival: In The Nest is set for Mon. Oct. 26th-Fri. Oct. 30th and passes are on sale now starting at $30. Go snag ’em here.

The final days of Craig Ferguson’s hosting of The Late Late Show over at CBS are coming soon. In anticipation of that, the guests for the final episodes have been teased, which include many of Craig’s favorite guests such as Thomas Lennon, Tim Meadows, Henry Winkler, Rashida Jones, Steve Carell, Lisa Kudrow, Mila Kunis, and more.

For the final send-off, Ferguson will have late night host compatriot Jay Leno as he joins him in late night host retirement.

We hope amidst this cavalcade, one of our favorite guests on The Late Late Show, Stephen Wright will also be stopping by to wish Ferguson bon voyage.
