Gilda’s Laughfest returns to Grand Rapids, Michigan in 2023.
The annual festival will occur from March 8th until March 12th.
Today, we’ve got our first announcement for comics and festivities happening at the festival.
Presented by Gun Lake Casino, this year’s festival will feature Tig Notaro, Pete Holmes, the Clean Comedy Showcase, D.J. Demers, Daphnique Springs, and Mike Vecchione. Charlie Berens will headline the annual Gilda’s Red Door Gala on March 16th.
Additional events will include LaughFest: Night at the Museum, LaughFest Trivia Night of Stars, Karajokee, Pop Scholars, River City Improv, and The Dirty Show.
“Gilda’s Club is an organization near and dear to the Gun Lake Casino family, and we are proud to once again present this seriously-funny fundraising event,” said Carter Pavey, the casino’s assistant general manager. “The emotional healthcare Gilda’s provides in the West Michigan area is incredibly important, and can make the world of a difference for anyone who is on a cancer journey, whether it be their own or a loved one.”
“Each year we work to create a unique festival including partnering with community organizations like Gun Lake Casino and Disability Advocates of Kent County,” said Zack Berends, festival manager. “This year’s festival will feature nearly 50 events and seriously fun and funny events for all ages.”
Tickets can be found here starting January 20th at 10 AM ET.
