The Great Outdoors Comedy Festival has announced a huge Saturday night lineup for next year in Vancouver.

John Mulaney is headlining a show with Nick Kroll, Mike Birbiglia, and Fred Armisen all opening for him on Saturday, Sept. 13, 2025. The four comedy stars will take the stage under the stars at Stanley Park on the festival's second night.

Mulaney, who rose to fame for a series of stand-up specials on Netflix after spending years writing for Saturday Night Live (SNL), is returning to Broadway this year for a play opposite Armisen, among others. Armisen was a long-time cast member on SNL and starred in Portlandia among other projects.

Previously Kroll and Mulaney starred in "The Oh, Hello Show" which was a part of Kroll's sketch comedy project Kroll Show and on Broadway. Along with his show and work with Mulaney, Kroll is known for The League.

Birbiglia has long been a fixture in New York's comedy scene, as a stand-up comedian and in other types of theatre. He's also known for his work with the radio show This American Life.

The three-day event will take place Sept. 12 to 14, 2025. Already, Bert Kreischer and Whitney Cummings have been announced as performers for the Friday show.

Tickets for the Friday show are on sale now, starting at $69. Tickets for the Saturday show haven't been released yet. A presale starts Nov. 21 with a public sale starting Nov. 22 at 10 a.m.
