The Out of Bounds Comedy Festival, now in its tenth year, has grown into a comedic behemoth. Starting Tuesday night and running for seven days, the fest will see hundreds of comedians from across the country (not to mention Amsterdam and Montreal) descending on Austin to perform and celebrate the art of being funny.

Things start off on Tuesday night at the Hideout, then move on to ColdTown Theater, the Velveeta Room, and the State Theater as the week progresses. You can catch sketch comedy from a number of local and national troupes, including Uncle’s Brother (featuring SNL alum Tim Meadows), WierDass (featuring Bob Dassie and MadTV’s Stephnie Weir), local favorites Parallelogramophonograph and many more. Plus tons of standup comedy, improv, and documentary films about comedy. For a full schedule of events and ticket information, check out the Out of Bounds website.
