Touted as “the hottest comic in America” by the New York Times, Sebastian Maniscalco has celebrated heights only a few comedians ever achieve. A string of record-breaking, sold-out arena shows include a comedy record for Chicago’s United Center with 21,286, the highest gross for a single event at Boston’s TD Garden, and a historic four-show run at New York’s Madison Square Garden, breaking the record for most shows sold in a weekend for the venue.

Currently on the road for his new Nobody Does This Tour, the comic Vulture said “built a tremendous fan base the old-fashioned way: one joke at a time, one audience at the time,” has announced over 15 arena dates for the second leg of the blockbuster tour. With so many new experiences to draw from this last year, Maniscalco is sharing his unique comedic perspective with the masses with this brand new show.
“I’ve been unable to share my comedy for over a year,” he shared exclusively with Billboard earlier this year. “I’m busting at the seams to get back out on the road and share my observations about life and family on this brand new tour!”
