Dave Chappelle is bringing his Karmageddon tour to Madison Square Garden for two nights instead of one. The comedian has added a second show on Saturday, Nov. 7, 2026, after his previously scheduled Friday, Nov. 6 performance drew what organizers describe as overwhelming demand.
Due to overwhelming demand, the comedian added a second huge show, according to the New York Post. The newly announced performance takes place November 7, following his previously scheduled November 6 appearance, according to That Eric Alper. Both nights are booked as part of the New York Comedy Festival and his Karmageddon tour, as reported by Pollstar. Madison Square Garden's own event listing confirms the New York Comedy Festival and Live Nation are presenting the shows.
What Tickets Are Actually Going For
For fans trying to decide which night to grab, the Post reports the lowest price on seats for either Chappelle MSG show was $156 including fees on StubHub. Fans hoping to get closer to the action can grab floor-level seats for as low as $387 including fees, per the same outlet's resale check. USA Today separately listed Madison Square Garden tickets for Nov. 6 as starting at $270, a reminder that prices vary by platform and can shift as shows get closer.
The Rest Of The Karmageddon Route
New York is just two stops on a seven-city arena run. The tour kicks off at Bridgestone Arena in Nashville, TN, on Oct. 20, according to Pollstar's reporting. USA Today notes the comedian announced dates in Nashville, Charlotte, Toronto, Louisville, Austin, Houston and New York City, rounding out a run that stretches across the U.S. and into Canada before landing at the Garden. General ticket sales for the broader tour went live Thursday, Sept. 17, at noon local time via Live Nation, according to Rolling Stone. Elsewhere on the calendar, USA Today reported the cheapest available tour tickets were starting at $154 for the Yum! Center in Louisville, Ky., on Oct. 24, a hair below even the Garden's lowest listed price.
A Festival Warm-Up In The Desert
Before he gets to New York, Chappelle has an Arizona detour. He is scheduled to headline the closing night of the inaugural Fastball Comedy Festival on October 18 at Sloan Park in Mesa, Arizona, per That Eric Alper's reporting. Fellow button-pushers Bill Burr, Tom Segura, Rachel Feinstein and Andrew Santino are also listed among the other performers at the festival, according to the Post's coverage.
What To Expect Once You're Inside
Whichever night ticket-holders end up on, they should plan on leaving their phones at the door in a manner of speaking. He asks audience members to put their phones in Yondr pouches, the Post reports, a now-familiar policy at Chappelle's live shows meant to keep material off social media before it airs anywhere else. With two sold-out-caliber nights now on the books at the world's most famous arena, the Garden dates cap off a fall run that already has fans across seven cities weighing floor seats against nosebleeds.
