Though the festival is returning for its 18th year, this year’s event is guaranteed to be a special one as it’s expanding to Long Island’s Nassau County for the first time ever, according to the festival’s website.

“To come together and experience the best in stand-up comedy and shared laughter is more important than ever,” Caroline Hirsch, the festival’s founder, said in a statement, according to The Hollywood Reporter.
