IMPORTANT ANNOUNCEMENT
Trixstar Productions Ltd. (“Trixstar” or the “Company”), the organizer of the Great Outdoors Comedy Festival, made an assignment in bankruptcy effective November 13, 2026. MNP Ltd. (“MNP”) has been appointed as Licensed Insolvency Trustee of the Company's bankruptcy estate, subject to affirmation by the Company's creditors at the first meeting of creditors.
A MESSAGE FROM MIKE ANDERSON
To everyone who has been part of Trixstar and the Great Outdoors Comedy Festival:
I wanted you to hear this from me. Trixstar faced significant financial challenges, and despite our efforts to address them, we were unable to establish a financially sustainable path forward. Ultimately, this made it impossible for Trixstar to continue operating.
This is an extremely difficult outcome for a company that has spent more than 20 years bringing entertainment experiences to communities across Canada and the United States.
I recognize that this news will have real consequences for our employees, suppliers, artists, partners, and fans who have supported Trixstar over the years. I am deeply sorry for the uncertainty and hardship this creates.
All questions regarding outstanding payments, creditor claims, and tickets should now be directed to MNP. This includes inquiries regarding tickets for the previously scheduled Edmonton show on July 18, 2026, the previously scheduled Mississauga festival, and the 2027 festivals. Ticket holders can contact MNP at trixstar@mnp.ca. MNP will be reaching out to all known creditors within the next five business days. MNP's Trixstar page provides information for affected stakeholders and will contain updates as they become available.
No determination has been made regarding future Great Outdoors Comedy Festival events. We are hopeful that, through this process, there may be an opportunity for the festival to find a new home and continue in some form.
Since 2005, Trixstar has had the privilege of working with extraordinary people and communities. To our employees, partners, artists, and audiences: thank you for your support, commitment, and contributions over the years.
