The second-annual Comedy Festival, a co-production of HBO and live-event company Anschutz Entertainment Group, will honor Chris Rock with its Comedian Award during an event to be held at Las Vegas' Caesars Palace on Nov. 17.

A tribute featuring friends and highlights from Rock’s career will be presented, and HBO chairman-CEO Chris Albrecht will have the honor of presenting Rock with the award.

Damon Wayans and Dane Cook are among the comics slated to perform at the festival, which runs from Nov. 14-18.

Last year, Jerry Seinfeld was given the award, established to honor a contemporary artist who has influenced the art of comedy across a variety of platforms.
