‘Weird Al’ Yankovic Announces ‘Bigger & Weirder’ 2025 Tour

“Weird Al” Yankovic has announced a massive 2025 tour that will take his full-scale, multimedia comedy-rock extravaganza across North America.The 65-date trek, dubbed the Bigger & Weirder tour, will see Yankovic bringing back his massive stage show and beloved parody classics after two tours of smaller venues that featured his original songs. A press release promises “iconic hits and fan favorites which have never been performed live, a giant video wall, multiple costume changes and an amazing eight-piece ensemble featuring Al’s original band.” Puddles Pity Party, the 7-foot, Pagliacci-inspired clown with the golden voice, will open the shows.”This is kind of a ‘best of both worlds’ tour,” Yankovic explained in a statement. “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 onstage, everything is going to sound twice as good!”READ MORE: Top 10 ‘Weird Al’ Yankovic Classic Rock ParodiesWhere Is ‘Weird Al’ Yankovic Playing in 2025?Yankovic will kick off his Bigger & Weirder tour with a week of shows in Las Vegas beginning on June 13.
