Comedy superstar Dave Chappelle is heading back on the road this fall with a new “Karmageddon” North American arena tour, featuring seven performances across the United States and Canada.
The tour will begin on October 20 in Nashville, Tennessee, before making stops in Charlotte, Toronto, Louisville, Austin and Houston. The run will conclude with a major performance at Madison Square Garden in New York City on November 6.
The announced dates are:
- October 20 — Nashville, TN — Bridgestone Arena
- October 21 — Charlotte, NC — Spectrum Center
- October 23 — Toronto, Canada — Scotiabank Arena
- October 24 — Louisville, KY — KFC Yum! Center
- October 26 — Austin, TX — Moody Center
- October 28 — Houston, TX — Toyota Center
- November 6 — New York, NY — Madison Square Garden
The Madison Square Garden show will also serve as the opening-night event for the 2026 New York Comedy Festival, which runs from November 6 to 15.
The announcement comes after a busy year of live performances for Chappelle, including a series of arena shows earlier in 2026. His fall run continues his return to some of North America’s biggest venues while giving audiences the opportunity to experience his latest stand-up material.
Tickets for the newly announced shows are scheduled to go on general sale September 17, with various presales beginning earlier in the week. The performances will also follow Chappelle’s established phone-free policy, with audience members required to secure phones and other connected devices in Yondr pouches during the show.
With seven arena dates packed into just over two weeks, the “Karmageddon” tour will give Chappelle fans across the U.S. and Canada another chance to see one of stand-up comedy’s most recognizable performers live, culminating in the high-profile Madison Square Garden finale.
