A second show has been added for co-headliner John Mulaney at this year’s Lucille Ball Comedy Festival, the National Comedy Center announced. The addition is the result of Mulaney’s first show selling out the day tickets went on sale to the public.

Mulaney will perform at Northwest Arena on Friday, Aug. 9, at 7 p.m. and later at 9:30 p.m.

Also performing twice during the comedy festival is Sebastian Maniscalco, who will be at the arena Saturday, Aug. 10, at 5 p.m. and 8 p.m.

“With an unprecedented four arena shows, it’s clear that this will be the biggest Lucille Ball Comedy Festival in its 27-year history,” said Journey Gunderson, National Comedy Center executive director. “We’re so pleased that we can bring thousands of comedy fans to Jamestown, who will visit the National Comedy Center and experience everything that Jamestown and Chautauqua County has to offer.”

Mulaney, who hosted Saturday Night Live last month, began writing for SNL in 2008, where he also appeared as a “Weekend Update” correspondent and co-created memorable characters such as “Stefon” with Bill Hader. He has spent the past year touring the country with his most recent show, “Kid Gorgeous,” which was released as a Netflix original special last year and won the Emmy award for Outstanding Writing in a Variety Special.

Maniscalco has been called “one of the funniest comedians working stand-up today,” by Esquire Magazine and “one of the hottest comics,” by Newsday.

Maniscalco broke records in January with four sold-out shows at Madison Square Garden, selling the most tickets in a weekend for any comedy engagement in the history of the Garden. In 2018, Maniscalco broke similar comedy box-office records for Radio City Music Hall.

“Our festival audiences love great comedy, and John Mulaney and Sebastian Maniscalco are two of the highest-regarded stand-up comedians performing today,” said Malachi Livermore, National Comedy Center director of programming and guest experience. “We are thrilled that we can accommodate the incredible demand by adding a second John Mulaney show, in addition to the second Sebastian Maniscalco show we added recently. We look forward to these four incredible shows this August, and there’s more still to come.”

Tickets for Mulaney’s 9:30 p.m. performance will go on pre-sale for National Comedy Center members only starting Wednesday, May 1, at noon and on sale to the public on Friday, May 3, at noon at comedycenter.org.

The comedy center said limited tickets to the Sebastian Maniscalco 5 p.m. show are still available. Additional festival events are also currently on sale, “while many more have yet to be announced, in a lineup that will celebrate comedy’s contemporary stars, rising voices, and historic legacies,” the comedy center said.
