Comedian Bert Kreischer is extending his Permission to Party World Tour into 2026, with newly announced dates including a stop at Chartway Arena in Norfolk, Virginia on Thursday, March 5.
Kreischer’s career has skyrocketed from being named Rolling Stone’s “Number One Partier in the Nation” to becoming one of the world’s highest-grossing stand-up comedians. Recognized by Forbes as “one of the best storytellers of his generation,” Kreischer has built a multimedia empire spanning comedy, film, podcasts, festivals, and consumer brands. In 2024, his tour ranked as the sixth highest-grossing comedy tour globally despite only running for half the year.
His latest Netflix special, Lucky, filmed in Tampa, premiered in March 2025 and debuted in Netflix’s Top 10 Most Watched TV Shows. It followed the success of Razzle Dazzle (2023), which drew 8.3 million views in its first week, and earlier hits including Hey Big Boy, Secret Time, The Machine, and Comfortably Dumb.
Beyond the stage, Kreischer co-founded Berty Boy Productions, producing podcasts such as Bertcast, Wife of the Party, Something’s Burning, and 2 Bears, 1 Cave with fellow comedian Tom Segura. His digital reach includes over 16.8 million fans, 4.4 billion impressions, and more than 343 million YouTube views.
He also created the Fully Loaded Comedy Festival, which has expanded to stadiums, arenas, and even a sold-out cruise that set records for alcohol sales at sea. In 2025, Kreischer and Segura hosted the second annual 2 Bears 5K at Tampa’s Raymond James Stadium, drawing over 7,000 participants—including NFL star Jason Kelce and country artist Jelly Roll.
Kreischer’s ventures extend into spirits with Por Osos Vodka, launched in 2024 with Segura. The brand has quickly expanded across multiple states, gaining recognition from critics and bartenders alike while serving as a presenting sponsor for fan events like the 2 Bears 5K.
On screen, Kreischer starred in and produced Sony Pictures’ The Machine (2023), which broke into Netflix’s Global Top 10 Films. Upcoming projects include the Netflix series Free Bert, co-starring Arden Myrin, and the comedy film Homecoming, directed by Jeff Tomsic (Tag).
With the launch of the Permission to Party World Tour this fall and a packed slate of creative projects, Kreischer continues to blur the lines between comedy, culture, and entrepreneurship—cementing his place as one of entertainment’s most dynamic figures.
Tickets go on sale to the general public on Friday, October 3 at 10:00AM.
