EXCLUSIVE: Comedian Matt Rife has another incredibly busy year ahead of him in 2026, as he’s added 40+ new dates to his Stay Golden World Tour, which will take him across North America, Europe and the UK, adding to previously announced shows next year across Australia, New Zealand, Singapore and Canada. The new run, produced by Live Nation, kicks off at Prudential Center in Newark, NJ on Saturday, February 28 and concludes at Paycom Center in Oklahoma City, OK on Tuesday, December 29. In select markets, Rife will introduce a 360° in-the-round stage design, giving fans a new immersive experience. Tickets for newly announced dates will be available starting Wednesday, November 12 at 12 p.m. local time with an artist presale. Additional presales will run throughout the week ahead of the general onsale beginning Friday, November 14 at 12 p.m. local time at Rife’s website. View Rife’s full slate of shows for 2026, including those that were previously announced, below. Rife launched his Stay Golden Tour this year, with shows across San Diego, Austin, Philadelphia, and more — including two sold-out nights at New York’s Madison Square Garden, making him the youngest comedian to sell out the venue. Rife has broken numerous venue records across the country on this tour, with the most single-event tickets ever sold at both Columbus’ Nationwide Arena and Seattle’s Climate Pledge Arena, as well as the all-time ticket sales record at Manchester’s SNHU Arena and the paid seat record for the Van Andel Arena in Grand Rapids, MI. He also set a new benchmark at Anaheim’s Honda Center, breaking the record for most tickets sold by a comedian in the venue’s history. With this tour, Rife builds on the success of the ProbleMATTic World Tour, his breakout tour with Live Nation, where he sold over 600,000 tickets across 250+ shows in under 48 hours. Now boasting over 44.6 million followers across social media platforms and more than three billion views globally, the comedian is set to unveil his next special for Netflix, Matt Rife: Unwrapped — A Christmas Crowd Work Special, on December 2. As an actor, Rife’s upcoming projects include Live Nation & American High’s R-rated comedy Rolling Loud, where he stars opposite Owen Wilson; Netflix’s The Altruists with Julia Garner; comedy The Escort from Wedding Crashers helmer David Dobkin; and The Chasm, a rock climbing mockumentary with Skydance Sports, which he co-wrote and will produce. He is repped by UTA, Avesta Entertainment, and Felker Toczek Suddleson.
