‘Weird Al’ Yankovic Unveils Extensive ‘Bigger & Weirder’ Tour Scheduled for 2025 | Tour

Date:

“Weird Al” Yankovic is returning to the street in 2025 on the Bigger & Weirder tour. It will characteristic an expanded model of his backing band, a number of costume modifications, video screens, and the return of his well-known parody songs following 2022’s stripped-down The Unfortunate Return of The Ridiculously Self-Indulgent Ill-Advised Vanity Tour that hit smaller venues, utilized minimal manufacturing, zero costumes, and concentred solely on Yankovic’s deep cuts from his huge catalog.

“This is kind of a ‘best of both worlds’ tour,” Yankovic mentioned in a press launch. “We’ll be doing all the big crowd-pleasing parodies as well as some deep cuts for the hardcore fans – but with twice as many players on stage, everything is going to sound twice as good!”

The tour kicks off June 13, 2025, with a five-night stand at The Venetian Theatre on the Venetian Resort in Las Vegas, Nevada, earlier than heading throughout the complete nation over the next three months. It features a cease at New York’s Madison Square Garden on July 12, which is able to mark Yankovic’s first present on the famed area in his four-decade profession.

There hasn’t been a brand new “Weird Al” album since 2014’s Mandatory Fun, which hit No. 1 on the Billboard 200. Since that point, he’s devoted his time to initiatives just like the mock biopic Weird: The Al Yankovic Story, quite a few live performance excursions, and one-off polka singles like 2018’s “The Hamilton Polka” and 2024’s “Polkamania!” One factor he hasn’t accomplished is launch any new parody songs, which isn’t prone to change any time quickly.

“I’m at a point in my life where I feel like I want to just try new things,” he instructed Rolling Stone in July. “I mean, I’ve been following the same formula for four decades, and I want to get more involved in feature films and TV, and I love voice acting. I want to still keep doing music, and I still love touring, obviously. But doing new parodies just… I don’t know. I’m not ruling it out, but it’s just not my focus anymore.”

Yankovic might be joined on tour by Puddles Pity Party (aka Michael Geier), a seven-foot-tall clown with an operatic singing voice. He’s appeared on America’s Got Talent and carried out with Primus and A Perfect Circle.
