Rising comedian Matt Mathews on Monday announced his Boujee on a Budget tour, a 52-city U.S. run which kicks off on October 25.
Produced by Live Nation, the tour will see him visiting major markets like Los Angeles, Atlanta and Chicago, with additional dates to be announced down the road.
Known for his relatable, situational humor, Mathews discusses a variety of topics and personal experiences in his stand-up, including his daily life of living on a farm, his career as a boudoir photographer, relationships, and more. The comedian will also bring his ever-popular “Confessions with Matt” video series to the live stage, where he provides a real-time comedic take on audience members who voluntarily spill their deepest, darkest secrets.
Tickets will be available starting with a Citi presale beginning Tuesday, August 13th. Additional presales will run throughout the week ahead of the general on-sale beginning Friday, August 16th at 10 a.m. local time at Live Nation’s website.
In a statement accompanying the tour announcement, Mathews told Deadline, “Growing up a broke, gay kid from the south I always dreamed of being a performer, but let’s be real, those big dreams don’t typically come true. Thankfully, I decided to take the risk and bet on myself as a comedian.”
Still, he said, “Never in my life did I imagine I would then sign an incredible deal with Live Nation for a second headlining tour. I couldn’t do this without the incredible support of the fans and I’m so excited, honored and humbled that so many people believe in me. I can’t wait to be back on that stage! Boujee on Budget is going to be wildddd.”
In a short amount of time, Matt has skyrocketed into the social media stratosphere through his raw social posts, side-splitting short-form videos and stand-up clips, earning him over 4.8 million followers on TikTok and over 2 million followers on Instagram. He’s coming off of his debut headlining tour, ‘When That Thang Get Ta Thang’n,’ which saw him sell out 100 dates and 150,000 tickets across the country.
Recently, Mathews also taped his first special at the Alabama Theatre in Birmingham, AL, with more details there to come soon. Additionally, he’s set to premiere Doin’ the Most With Matt Mathews, a new six-episode YouTube series which will follow him around as he takes on new challenges from ballet class to bartending, on September 22nd.
