Calgary’s Great Outdoors Comedy Festival Adds Nick Offerman to Festival Lineup

Hold onto your funny bones, folks, as Great Outdoors Comedy Festival has added Nick Offerman as the headliner for its Friday lineup.

The Great Outdoors Comedy Festival

The festival debuted last year and was such a hit that it’s returning to the beautiful Prince’s Island Park for its second edition from August 25 to 27.

Nick Offerman is known for his slow-talking, musical humour and for his roles in shows like Parks and Recreation and Devs.

He’ll be joined by Sam Morril and Dan Soder, two other comedic powerhouses.

As previously announced, Jonathan Van Ness and Andrew Schulz will be headlining on Saturday and Sunday, respectively.

Tickets for Friday start at just $49 for early bird General Admission and $79 for VIP.

VIP tickets come with added benefits, like early access to the venue and table-side service of drinks and snacks. But if you’re not splurging on a VIP ticket, don’t worry – there will be plenty of first come, first served grass seating available in the designated area, along with a walk-up bar.

One important thing to note is that this event is for adults only (18+) and will go on rain or shine. So make sure to bring a valid government-issued photo ID with you when you head to Prince’s Island Park for a night of laughter and fun.

Tickets will be available for presale on April 13th and on sale to the general public on April 14th. Lower-tier tickets for August 26 and 27 are already sold out, so don’t wait too long to snag your spot!
