The festival will include comedy and music acts, though the initial line-up, which includes Sarah Silverman, Adam Sandler, Zach Galifianakis and Tig Notaro, is heavy on comedians and light on music acts.
“We’ve been trying to put this thing together for years. The comedy + music event of the century. Festival Supreme! It will shake the heavens and bring this town to its knees…in a good way,” said Tenacious D (aka Jack Black and Kyle Gass) in a statement.
Below the trippy video announcement for Festival Supreme is the line-up so far. Pre-sale tickets go on sale June 12. General admission tickets are $99.
