“Weird Al” Yankovic Announces Massive “BIGGER & WEIRDER” 2025 Tour, To Hit 65 Cities Across North America


“Weird Al” Yankovic is the biggest-selling comedy recording artist in history. A beloved American treasure and pop culture icon, he is renowned globally for his artist-approved parodies of massive hits from the last four decades. His repertoire includes parodies of songs by Madonna, Taylor Swift, Michael Jackson, Usher, Nirvana, Eminem, Queen, Lady Gaga, and many more. Yankovic has garnered 5 Grammy awards and 17 career nominations. Remarkably, he is one of only three artists to have charted in the Top 40 of the Billboard Hot 100 in each of the last four consecutive decades, alongside Madonna and Michael Jackson.

Beyond music, Yankovic is also an accomplished actor, writer, and producer. In recognition of his contributions to entertainment, he was awarded a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame in 2018. His 2022 release, WEIRD: The Al Yankovic Story, which features Daniel Radcliffe portraying Yankovic, earned him an Emmy Award, further cementing his legacy as a multifaceted entertainer and cultural icon.

“This is kind of a ‘best of both worlds’ tour. We’ll be doing all the big crowd-pleasing parodies as well as some deep cuts for the hardcore fans – but with twice as many players on stage, everything is going to sound twice as good!”

“Weird Al” Yankovic is bringing back his full-scale, multimedia comedy rock show with the **BIGGER & WEIRDER 2025 Tour** after several years of more intimate performances. This tour promises a return to his signature high-energy production, featuring his iconic parodies, a giant video wall, multiple costume changes, and his original eight-piece band. Fans can expect a dynamic, super-sized concert experience filled with the humor and musical brilliance that have made Weird Al a legend.

Supporting the tour is **Puddles Pity Party**, the 7-foot sad clown known for his soulful voice and emotional performances, providing an intriguing contrast to Weird Al’s zany, satirical style. The tour kicks off June 13 at The Venetian in Las Vegas and runs across North America through September.
