Vulture Festival L.A. Presented by AT&T is back and we’re throwing the coolest poolside party, maybe ever? It’s all happening November 9 and 10, when Vulture Festival returns to the Hollywood Roosevelt. And who’s joining us there, you ask? Well, we’re glad you did, because this is literally our first lineup announcement and that is why we’re writing it. Just to whet your appetite, we’ll kick this off with a reunion of Party Down. That’s right, we’ve got Adam Scott, Lizzy Caplan, Megan Mullally, Jane Lynch, Martin Starr, Ryan Hansen, Ken Marino, along with series creators John Enbom, Dan Etheridge, and Rob Thomas coming together for the first time in a decade. We’re also reuniting the cast and creators of One Day at a Time to get you ready for the Alvarez family’s big debut on PopTV. Now, get ready to really start screaming, because we’re also going to be hanging out with cast members from I Think You Should Leave, The Good Place, Pen15, getting the inside scoop on the art of performance from Elisabeth Moss, and getting to know almost too much about Netflix’s You. Okay, now you should stop screaming, because you’ll need your voice for our poolside screening and singalong of A Star Is Born. Check out the entire lineup below, and keep an eye out for even more announcements to come!

A STAR IS BORN POOLSIDE SCREENING PRESENTED BY VIRGIN VOYAGES
Hey! What? Just wanted to take another look at you, A Star is Born!

(Also none of those movies have electrical tape eyebrows and Sam Elliott’s deep voice.) Join Vulture’s resident A Star is Born stan Hunter Harris for a special poolside screening and pop-rock singalong of Jackson Maine and Ally’s greatest hits.
