After a whirlwind year of sold-out performances and over 135,000 tickets snatched up faster than a hot pastry at a bakery, comedian Matt Mathews isn’t hanging up his mic just yet. No, he’s extending his reign of laughter right into 2026. Yes, this boudoir photographer-turned-comedian has decided to bless us with 22 new dates for his aptly named **Boujee on a Budget Tour**, kicking off February 12 in the highly glamorous El Paso, Texas, and wrapping up in the equally fabulous Davenport, Iowa, on June 20.
Prepare your calendars, comedy aficionados! Mathews is bringing his acclaimed one-man riot show to all the major hotbeds of entertainment: think Portland, Seattle, Cincinnati, and even good ol’ Washington, D.C. Because nothing says “fun” like laughter echoing through bureaucratic corridors! Tickets will magically appear for sale on Thursday, October 30, at 10 a.m. local time. Pro tip: Set reminders unless you enjoy running from the back of the line to the front like a caffeinated chicken!
More on this side-splitting adventure
Nearing his pants-splitting 100 performances, the **Boujee on a Budget** experience is backed by Mathews’ raw storytelling, Southern charm, and a mouth spicier than a jalapeño in a sauna. His comedy material? Oh, don’t get me started—it’s a delectable blend of his experiences as a farmer, a car racer, and an aspiring photographer, all served with a side of guilt-tripping narratives about life as a gay man in small-town Alabama. Truly, there’s humor in every heart-wrenching tale, and Mathews is serving it up with a wink and a smirk.
But hold your chuckles! The 2025 tour isn’t wrapping quietly into the night. No, sir! Mathews is saving the best for last with a luxurious two-show finale: a majestic taping at Nashville’s iconic Ryman Auditorium and his highly anticipated first arena performance back in Birmingham, Alabama. Will there be confetti? Probably. Will there be tears? Expect mascara rivers, my friends.
As if being a comedic titan wasn’t enough, Mathews is expanding his brand as if he’s trying to take over the world. With over 12 million followers and a staggering 1 billion views across all his delightful social platforms, he’s reaching fans who may not even know what a ticket looks like! And later this year, brace yourselves for his debut self-titled music album, just in case the comedy world wasn’t entertaining enough. Prepare your ears for his chart-topping tracks, including the poetic explorations of “What a War” and the introspective ballad “Joke’s On Me.”
Fans should prepare for a true Mathews masterclass in humor combined with irresistible down-home honesty. Imagine a mash-up of country flair and city wit that can only rise from someone who knows how to navigate both worlds sans GPS.
Don’t forget your presale passes! Starting Tuesday at 10 a.m. local time, fans can elbow their way into exclusive access until Wednesday, October 29, at 10 p.m. local time. For regular folks, the general ticket sales kick off on Thursday, October 30, at 10 a.m. local. Set those alarms, and don’t lose out—unless you enjoy the bitter taste of missed opportunities!
