18 Dec
Summary
- Nikki Glaser performed the most shows across all genres.
- Two comedians played 100 shows or more this year.
- Only one woman featured in comedy's top 10 tours.
The year-end Billboard Boxscore charts for 2025 reveal the top comedy tours, with familiar names dominating the rankings. "Weird Al" Yankovic made a significant impact, cracking the top five with his Bigger & Weirder Tour. Nikki Glaser secured the ninth position, driven by an impressive 120 shows.
Glaser's extensive performance schedule made her the act with the most reported shows of the year across all genres. She and Gabriel Iglesias were the only two comedians to surpass 100 shows, with Iglesias performing exactly 100 dates during the tracking period.
Remarkably, Nikki Glaser stands as the only woman within comedy's top 10 highest-grossing tours. This marks an improvement from the prior year's list, which featured no female performers. The last time a woman topped the comedy list was in 2016.
