Tickets are now on sale for the 2016 Melonville Comedy Festival in Hermiston.
Sponsored by KORD and 97ROCK. Since 1993 the Hermiston’s stand-up comedy event has seen the top comics in America, such as Costaki Economopoulous, Alonzo Bodden, Mitch Hedberg, and Greg Warren just to name four of the 94 comics who have brought their stories to Hermiston.
This year’s show will feature Greg Hahn, Drew Barth, and Travis Nelson.
“These comics are in-demand corporate show entertainers,” said show producer Warren Smith.
Hahn is a favorite on the nationally syndicated Bob and Tom Radio Show and Mornings on 97 Rock. He has appeared on Late Night with Conan O’Brien, Comedy Central, CBS, ABC, FOX, MTV and CMT.
Barth is making his second appearance at the Melonville Comedy Festival. His credits include appearances at West Coast comedy clubs, and is also an in-demand voice over actor.
Nelson is a popular comic working in both Canada and the United States. Travis will be this Year’s Emcee.
Doors open Jan. 30 at 7 p.m. and the show starts at 8 p.m.

Food sales help the Special Olympics, and adult beverages are available. The age limit is 21 and older. Other sponsors include the Midway Bar and Grill, and the Hermiston Best Western.
