It’s almost that time again for one of the world’s biggest comedy festivals to make all of your dream comedy line-ups come true (probably to the point where you’re overwhelmed). Already, Carol Burnett, Big Terrific, Paul F. Tompkins, Janeane Garofalo, Lauren Lapkus, Aparna Nancherla, and Laraine Newman is so damn good and that’s only a fraction of this portion of the line-up.

SF Sketchfest will be taking over San Francisco from Jan. 10th-27th and offer this already overflowing chalice of comedy riches with truly much, much more to come.

Tickets went on sale yesterday and you can (and very much should) go snag them here.

San Francisco Is Getting Another Big Comedy Festival This Year with Comedy Central’s Very First “Clusterfest”

At the beginning of the year, San Francisco always has one of the biggest comedy festivals in the world, SF Sketchfest.

Just announced today, SF will be getting another giant comedy festival in the summertime, specifically June 2nd-4th, brought to you by Comedy Central.

The first ever Clusterfest has a gigantic line-up of the sort proportions and depth that Comedy Central can summon. It’s also the flip of most big time music and arts festival in that it’s mostly comedy with a bit of music as opposed to there being a comedy tent and lots and lots and lots of music a la Bonnaroo, Outside Lands, etc. (Note: producers of both those festivals are involved here). See the line-up below or in this glitterbomb filled announcement video here.

Tickets/passes go on sale this Thursday, March 2nd here. They range from $199.50 earlybird pass-$599.50 VIP Pass.

More festival line-up announcements need to go like this.

In a similar fashion to SF Sketchfest’s line-up announcement video, The Outside Lands Music and Arts Festival had fun playing with the idea of announcing the line-up as a mother played by Lauren Lapkus would tell you what’s going to be on the dinner table or other weirdly out-of-place scenes with the likes of Dave Theune and Demorge Brown to be discussing what acts will be playing a giants arts and music festival.

Watch the announcement video here. Then, you can get more details on Outside Lands, which runs from Aug. 7-9, here.
