The Great Outdoors Comedy Festival Vancouver Goes Beyond The Stage To Foster Culture, Community And Connection

Today, the Great Outdoors Comedy Festival celebrates the heart and flavour of Vancouver with the unveiling of its 2025 Food and Beverage lineup ahead of its return to Stanley Park September 12-14. Aloha Poke, B&B Burgers, Cravings Kettle Corn, G’s Donairs, Mr. Frosty, Insomniac’s Coffee, Juicy Green Express, Little oOties, Mom’s Grilled Cheese, Mr. Popcorn, Reel Mac and Cheese, Rotato Potato, Triple O’s, Truckin’ BBQ, Mr. Tube Steak, Urban Wood Fired Pizza, and West Coast Bannock will serve up a wide variety of the city’s best dishes, with incredible craft beer offerings from long-time BC-brewing fixture Okanagan Spring Brewery.

With seamless table-side service delivering premium cocktails, spirits, and dishes from Reel Mac and Cheese, Mr. Tube Steak, and more, the VIP table experience redefines outdoor entertainment – allowing fans to stay fully immersed in the show without missing a moment. The elevated offering includes reserved seating closest to the stage, early entry via a private entrance, complimentary Wi-Fi, and pre-set tables — all designed to provide a relaxed, uninterrupted evening of world-class comedy.

As part of its ongoing commitment to community impact, the Great Outdoors Comedy Festival is proud to support local organizations through the Great Outdoors Community Fund, which champions initiatives in Arts & Culture, Mental Health, and Sustainability. In Vancouver, the festival has partnered with The Improv Centre, a cornerstone of the city’s comedy scene and a registered charity based on Granville Island. The organization will run an on-site 50/50 fundraiser throughout the weekend, with proceeds supporting TIC’s long-standing initiatives to make comedy accessible—including free coaching in under-resourced schools, scholarships for emerging improvisors from underrepresented communities, and opportunities for youth and marginalized artists to build skills, confidence, and community through comedy.
