Tickets will be available starting with a presale beginning on Wednesday, and will go on sale to the public on Friday at 10 a.m. at ticketmaster.com.

Mulaney is a two-time Emmy and WGA award-winning writer, actor and comedian. He can be seen in his latest Netflix stand up special, "Baby J," released in April, in which Mulaney converts his personal turmoil into comedic brilliance, which earned him 2023 Emmy nominations in Outstanding Variety Special (Pre-Recorded) and Outstanding Writing For A Variety Special.

He has sold out venues around North America from Madison Square Garden multiple times to the Hollywood Bowl. His 2023 tour dates have included shows across U.S., Europe and Australia.

In 2018, Mulaney traveled the United States with the sold-out "Kid Gorgeous" tour, which was later released as a Netflix stand-up special and won the Emmy for Outstanding Writing in a Variety Special. In 2015, he released "The Comeback Kid," also a Netflix original, which The AV Club called the "best hour of his career."

Mulaney has been invited to host "Saturday Night Live" five times. He began writing for "SNL" in 2008 and created memorable characters such as "Stefon" with Bill Hader and appeared as a "Weekend Update" correspondent.

In December 2019, the critically acclaimed and Emmy nominated musical variety special " John Mulaney & The Sack Lunch Bunch" debuted on Netflix. He's also starred on Broadway in "Oh, Hello On Broadway," written and performed alongside Nick Kroll. The duo have since released a Netflix special of the same name, as well as "Oh, Hello: The P'dcast," based off their characters Gil Faizon and George St. Geegland.
