GOCF actively works with community organizations to identify needs and ways we can add a little more good to the world. Through the Great Outdoors Community Fund, we were fortunate to donate and raise over $250,000 to local charities and not-for-profits between the 8 cities we activated in this past summer. These groups fell under 3 main pillars: Arts & Culture, Mental Health and Sustainability. LEARN MORE
Gathering together to share a laugh is important, but we also acknowledge the impacts this has on our planet. That’s why we’re committed to paving a path to a more sustainable festival in future years. From reducing our carbon footprint to thoughtful planning around waste, manufacturing and operations, we’re curating a comedy experience that also keeps the earth smiling. We pledge to continually evolve our robust green event practices year over year, ensuring that we tread lightly and leave nothing but laughter in our wake. We hope you’ll come along for the ride.
