Laughter Meets Leadership: Great Outdoors Comedy Festival Joins SponsorshipX Changemakers Summit as Entertainment Changemaker

Comedy isn't just about a punchline. It's about connection, community, and the power to spark culture.

That's why we are excited to name the Great Outdoors Comedy Festival (GOCF) our official Entertainment Changemaker at the SponsorshipX Changemakers Summit, taking place from November 13 to 15, 2025, in Toronto.

GOCF brings more than comedy. They bring movement. Their vision is "to create an inclusive and safe experience that celebrates and features all forms of performance comedy, from locals to superstars. All while celebrating and supporting the communities and beautiful parks we visit."

They don't just host events. They embed culture, community, and care into every show.

Comedy With Impact

Live comedy under the open sky in city parks and scenic venues across North America. That's the GOCF signature: "live comedy in the great outdoors … packed full of side-splitting entertainment from the moment you walk in the gates." Behind the laughs is a deeper purpose. GOCF is committed to community, with a focus on "Mental Health & Wellness" as a core part of their platform.

They show how comedy can do more than entertain. It can heal, unite, and open space for authenticity. If your brand is seeking to establish relevance, evoke emotion, and convey purpose through live experiences, this is the model for you.

"We've got something exciting to share at SPONSORSHIPX and it will put a smile on the delegates' faces," said Mike Anderson, President of Trixstar. "We're not just announcing a show. We're opening a new chapter for the festival, and this is the perfect stage to do it."

What to Expect

• A high-energy launch moment that puts GOCF in the spotlight at Changemakers, unveiling what's next in their national story. Something big is coming, and your brand will want to be a part of it!

• An engaging delegate experience with Donovan Workun and Chris Borger from Atomic Improv, who will create an unforgettable adventure brought to you by the Great Outdoors Comedy Festival. These comedians will take the stage, engage the audience, and disrupt the usual conference rhythm.

• A demonstration of how entertainment and live experience can drive brand community, culture, and authenticity, not just visibility.

Why This Matters for Brands

GOCF has built an ecosystem where comedy, culture, and purpose intersect. They're setting the stage for brands to engage people in ways that feel real. For marketers seeking connections that go deeper than impressions, this is a blueprint: experiences that matter, environments that feel open, inclusive, and vibrant.
