Following a triumphant 2024 run, highlighted by multiple sold-out performances, Maniscalco solidified his place as one of comedy’s most influential figures.
As the undisputed king of comedy, Sebastian Maniscalco has earned acclaim from The New York Times as the “hottest comic in America.” Known for his impeccable timing, relatable anecdotes, and distinctive physicality, Maniscalco blends observational humor with his unique take on everyday life
Tickets to see Maniscalco go on sale Friday, May 16th at 10:00am via Ticketmaster.com. Maniscalco’s fans can purchase tickets at the Mohegan Sun Box Office beginning on Saturday, May 17th, subject to availability.
Maniscalco invites fans to join him on the It Ain’t Right tour, where he humorously dissects today’s absurdities, from nonexistent manners and soaring prices to the chaos of social media. His unique take on the shamelessness of modern life promises a night of laughter at the world’s many wrongs.
“The response to this tour has been nothing short of incredible—the crowds have been electric, and the energy is just through the roof,” said Maniscalco. “We’re gearing up to bring you even more on the second leg, and I can’t wait to get back out there. See you soon!”
ABOUT SEBASTIAN MANISCALCO
Sebastian Maniscalco has solidified his position as the reigning king of physical comedy, earning accolades from The New York Times as the “hottest comic in America.” With over two decades of experience, he has cultivated a massive, loyal fanbase. As noted by Pollstar, he’s “been a voice in the vanguard of a live comedy revolution.” His recent It Ain’t Right tour saw him take New York City by storm, where he set four records with five consecutive sold-out shows at Madison Square Garden.

Playing in his hometown at the United Center, he further solidified his legacy, extending his record as the highest-grossing and highest-selling comedian of all time, with these two shows adding to his remarkable achievements at the venue over its three-decade history. At Scotiabank Arena, Maniscalco shattered records by holding titles for the most tickets sold for a live event, the most tickets sold for a comedy run, and the highest-grossing comedy run in the venue’s history. He also set all-time attendance records at Hertz Arena, Prudential Center, and UBS Arena, cementing his status as a comedy powerhouse.
Additionally, he has showcased his comedic brilliance in six specials across major networks, including Netflix, Showtime, and Comedy Central, making him a household name in the world of comedy.
