The Oddball Comedy & Curiosity Festival returns as one of the biggest comedy touring festivals ever. 

It’s interesting that they went with the bold red font for top billed acts and listed the line-up alphabetically instead of doing the traditional top-to-bottom-big-name-to-up-and-coming. It’s one way to be an oddball we suppose.
