Oddball Comedy and Curiosity Festival Heads to White River Amphitheatre with an Insane Lineup

Louis C.K., Aziz Ansari, Sarah Silverman, Chris Hardwick, Demetri Martin, Hannibal Buress, and more come to Auburn.

Sorry every other festival under the sun, your lineup has just been trumped. On September 5, Funny or Die brings its Oddball Comedy and Curiosity Festival to the White River Amphitheatre in Auburn and the lineup consists of a sizable chunk of standup comedy’s A-list: Louis C.K., Aziz Ansari, Sarah Silverman, Demetri Martin, Chris Hardwick, Hannibal Buress, Jeff Ross, and Whitney Cummings. That. Is. Nuts. (That sound you can hear faintly in the distance is Seattle comedy nerds shrieking with Beatlemania-like hysteria.) As if there needed to be anymore, former Seattleite Brody Stevens will host a second stage.

Tickets for the Oddball Comedy and Curiosity Festival 2014 at White River Amphitheatre go on sale this Saturday, June 28 at 10am on livenation.com and cost $35–$100 (a bargain considering seeing almost any of the performers listed above at a theater would cost at least $35).
