Michelle Wolf, Pete Davidson join Life is Beautiful lineup
The Life is Beautiful festival in Las Vegas is attracting big names this year — both to the main stage and the comedy stage.
Life is Beautiful announced today that Hannibal Buress, Michelle Wolf, Pete Davidson and Natasha Leggero will headline 2018’s comedy showcase “The Kicker Comedy & More” at The Venue Las Vegas inside the festival grounds.
This year’s comedy lineup also includes Jimmy O. Yang of HBO’s “Silicon Valley”, “Ru Paul’s Drag Race” contestant Trixie Mattell and Nicole Byer from Netflix’s “Nailed It!”.
The lineup boasts considerably more star power than last year’s lineup at Comedy House.
“We obsess over the experience of our guest from the moment they walk through our gates,” says Justin Weniger, CEO of Life is Beautiful. “We watched last year as our comedy showcase brought people together and broke down barriers. Feedback from our audience inspired us to amplify and expand the comedy offering for the 2018 festival. In keeping with our tradition of providing the most memorable, perspective shifting performances on each of our stages we are incredibly proud to have Pete Davidson at our inaugural edition of The Kicker along with headliners Hannibal Buress, Michelle Wolf and a diverse list of talented comedians and performers.”
The comedy showcase is open to all Life is Beautiful attendees with a valid wristband on a first come, first served basis.
Life is Beautiful runs from Sep. 21-23 in downtown Las Vegas with The Weeknd, Arcade Fire, Florence + The Machine and Odesza headlining.
