November is approaching fast, which means Vulture is coming to LA. Thankfully, that’s not anything resembling the CA state bird, the California Condor, circling its prey. Instead, it’s a highly curated gathering of the most chic happenings possible via NY Magazine’s cool arm (including a live Comedians You Should & Will Know showcase).

Vulture Festival is coming back to Hollywood once again on Sat. Nov. 12th and Sun. 13th, but taking over a new location, nya Studios, which actually puts its squarely in the “Netflix Valley” of Hollywood (which means you’ll probably still see a picket line if the SAG-AFTRA strike isn’t over in another month).

So far, they’ve announced:

Weird Al Superlatives Live!

Matt Rogers Holiday Spectacular Sing-a-Long Extravaganza (Album Version)

A Big Long Talk With Cord Jefferson (writer/director of what will likely be the end of the year comedy hit, American Fiction)

An Intimate Evening with Adam Pally

That’s just a taste of what’s to come.

Tickets are only $25-$30 per show and you can (and very much should) go snag tix here, before they sell out (Vulture tends to sell out their events).

Enjoy a Bit of Rachel Bloom Doing a Panel Discussion with Her Childhood Bully

Of the many intriguing things going on Vulture Festival right now, one of the most intriguing things they slated for their virtual edition was a one-on-one discussion between the brilliant Rachel Bloom and her childhood bully. Bloom has always been one for being ultra-vulnerable in so many of her sketches, songs, or the multiple seasons of Crazy Ex-Girlfriend, even if they’re breaking jovially into song.

So, Bloom got as vulnerable as can be for this live-stream convo with her bully (and now friend) Zach Hillman and it’s a doozy. Just get a taste of it with the start of their chat from Vulture Festival here.

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.

Vulture’s annual shindig, Vulture Festival is back for another round and plenty of stuff that you’ll really want to make the effort to get to the Hollywood Roosevelt for.

Their schedule already includes a Party Down reunion, a Community reunion, a Good Place panel, an AIM conversation with PEN15 creators, a MacGruber screening with live commentary from Will Forte, and a showcase of Vulture’s annual Comedians You Should and Will Know list*.

That very, very stacked schedule sounds pretty swell, right? Well, you best go get your tickets before they inevitably sell out here.

*Comedians You Should Will and Know showcase to happen at Dynasty Typewriter instead of Hollywood Roosevelt

Better find a good way to park (or Lyft to) Hollywood Roosevelt for Sat. & Sun. Nov. 17th & Nov. 18th.

The Vulture Festival will be taking over the Roosevelt that weekend and bringing: Bitch Sesh Live, a live table read of Big Mouth, a Schitt’s Creek Holiday Spectacular, Adam Pally and Casey Wilson: An Excuse to Hang Out: An Evening of Music, Comedy, and Friendship, Busy Philipps: In Conversation, and much more!

If that peaks your interest (and we’re betting that it does), you can buy individual tickets here.
