Other noteworthy performers include Kathy Griffin, Billy Crystal, Patton Oswalt, and Sarah Silverman. Nathan Fielder, John Leguizamo, and Iliza Schlesinger will all make their NYCF debut. The full lineup can be found at the festival website.

“Performing at Carnegie Hall is a dream come true,” Apatow said in in a news release announcing the lineup. “Not for me but for some foreign 12-year-old violinist. I’m sure it will be great!”
