BERT KREISCHER RETURNS TO HEADLINE THE GREAT OUTDOORS COMEDY FESTIVAL WITH FOUR 2025 DATES ACROSS CANADA!

Comedian/Actor/Podcaster Bert Kreischer’s career has evolved from being Rolling Stone Magazine’s “Number One Partier in the Nation,” to one of the top grossing stand-up comics in the business, to the star of a major motion picture, The Machine. According to Forbes, Kreischer has been hailed as, “one of the best storytellers of his generation, seamlessly and sincerely sharing anecdotes about his family and fatherhood while proving that there’s a way to take his [party-boy] antics into middle-age.” Prepare for an evening of side-splitting entertainment from the moment you walk in the gates; with local entertainment, food trucks and cold drinks. Come for the jokes, stay for the scenery, and let the good times roll.
