Popular TikTok personality, comedian and actor Matt Rife added a second show time when he comes to perform at the Saenger Theatre in Pensacola in October as part of his upcoming stand-up comedy show.

Rife announced his "ProbleMATTic World Tour" on social media Monday with actor Ashton Kutcher to set the tone for his massive fanbase, saying this is the tour of his dreams.

Pensacola is one of four other Florida cities named in the comedian's long-awaited tour: Orlando, St. Petersburg and Jacksonville.

Fans can catch Rife in Pensacola on Oct. 8 at 5 and 8 p.m.

General ticket sales begin 10 a.m. Friday at ticketmaster.com, but high demand has limited availability and prompted the site to institute a queue for sales.
