“Weird Al” Yankovic will visit some of the largest venues of his career, including New York’s Madison Square Garden and Los Angeles’ Kia Forum, on the Bigger and Weirder 2025 tour, which begins June 13 with the first of five shows at the Venetian in Las Vegas. The outing follows two consecutive tours focused only on Yankovic’s original material and will be his first in six years to feature his classic pop music parodies.
Bigger and Weirder also promises “fan favorites which have never been performed live,” as well as “multiple” costume changes, a giant video wall and an eight-piece band staffed by musicians with whom Yankovic has been working for decades. The seven-foot-tall clown Puddles Pity Party will open all dates. Tickets go on sale Friday (Sept. 27).

“This is kind of a ‘best of both worlds’ tour,” says the artist, who turns 65 next month. “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.”
On the heels of his 2022 faux Hulu biopic Weird: The Al Yankovic Story, the artist this year released the single “Polkamania!,” which gave an accordion-heavy spin to songs such as Olivia Rodrigo’s “Vampire,” Billie Eilish’s “Bad Guy” and Lil Nas X’s “Old Town Road.” Yankovic also raided the vaults for a 35th anniversary Blu-ray release of his cult film UHF.
