Preview: Matt Rife announces ProbleMATTic Tour

Today, wildly popular comedian and actor Matt Rife announced his ProbleMATTic World Tour hitting cities across North America, Australia, and Europe throughout 2023 and 2024. Produced by Live Nation, the massive tour with more than 100 dates kicks off on Thursday, July 20 in Bend, OR at Hayden Homes Amphitheater with stops across North America in Los Angeles, Las Vegas, Austin and more this year before wrapping up 2023 with a New Years Eve show on Sunday, December 31 at The Louisville Palace in Louisville, KY.

The ProbleMATTic World Tour continues next year with a series of Australia dates starting Thursday, January 11, 2024 in Perth, Western Australia at Perth Concert Hall, with stops in Brisbane, Sydney and Melbourne before embarking on a second North America run that will hit New York, Chicago, Nashville, Toronto, along with many other cities. Rife will then head to Europe in the fall with shows in Amsterdam, London, Paris and more before concluding the tour on Friday, October 20 at Santeria Toscana 31 in Milan, Italy. 

“I couldn’t be more thrilled to live out this life long dream! To tour the world, spreading laughter, with some of my best friends, is something I never thought would be possible. I’m so grateful to get this opportunity, and it’s even more fulfilling knowing that it’s all because of the incredible people who enjoy my comedy,” said Matt Rife. “I’ve been working so hard towards this for 12 years and now I’ve surrounded myself with a team who works just as hard and share the same passion! I still can’t believe it.”

“Matt has quickly become one of the fastest-rising comics, creating incredible global demand for tickets,” says Andy Levitt, VP, Live Nation Comedy Touring. “We’re looking forward to working alongside him and helping him connect to his audiences around the world.”

TICKETS: Tickets will be available starting with an Artist presale beginning Tuesday, June 6 at 10 AM local time. Additional presales will run throughout the week ahead of the general onsale beginning Friday, June 9 at 10 AM local time at MattRifeOfficial.com.  

In 2021, Rife self-produced and distributed through YouTube his first one-hour comedy special, “Only Fans”. This past April, the comedian bet on himself again and self-released his highly anticipated second stand-up special, “Matthew Steven Rife” on YouTube. The special was taped in Austin, TX and is dedicated to his biggest role model, his grandfather Steven who had recently passed. Rife will be taping his third stand-up special this fall in Washington, DC at DAR Constitution Hall.
