Weird Al Yankovic schedules 2026 tour stop in Orange Beach

Weird Al Yankovic will bring his Bigger & Weirder Tour to The Wharf Amphitheater in Orange Beach, Alabama, on October 3, 2026, with special guest Puddles Pity Party. Tickets go on sale November 21. The announcement follows a successful 2025 run that drew over 500,000 fans.

The Bigger & Weirder Tour marks the next phase of Weird Al Yankovic's live performances after a triumphant 2025 outing. That year, Yankovic performed 75 shows across 67 cities, entertaining more than 500,000 attendees and selling out major venues such as Madison Square Garden, The Kia Forum, and Red Rocks Amphitheatre.

For 2026, the tour expands to 90 cities throughout North America, including a performance at The Wharf Amphitheater on Saturday, October 3, at 7:30 p.m. The show promises Yankovic's signature parodies and hits like “Amish Paradise,” “Eat It,” and “White & Nerdy,” alongside fan favorites, a giant video wall, multiple costume changes, and an eight-piece band featuring his original ensemble. Special guest Puddles Pity Party will join for the evening.

Tickets become available to the public on Friday, November 21, at 10 a.m. through Ticketmaster.com or The Wharf Box Office, with prices subject to change and a service fee applied.

Yankovic, the best-selling comedy recording artist in history, reflected on the tour's momentum: “We did 75 shows this year, and the fans weren’t sick of us yet, so we’re just going to keep on touring until they are!” Known for parodies of artists including Madonna, Taylor Swift, Michael Jackson, and others, he holds five Grammy Awards and 17 nominations. His 2014 album Mandatory Fun debuted at number one on the Billboard Top 200, the only comedy album to achieve that feat. Yankovic also earned an Emmy for the 2022 film WEIRD: The Al Yankovic Story, starring Daniel Radcliffe, and received a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame in 2018.

His concerts have graced stages at iconic spots like Radio City Music Hall, The Hollywood Bowl, and Carnegie Hall over the years.
