Iliza Shlesinger will launch the "Free Nights & Weekends Tour" on Jan. 22, 2027, at the Orpheum Theatre in Minneapolis, with the run wrapping on Nov. 13, 2027, at the Chicago Theatre as part of the 312 Festival.
The comedian, actor and writer announced the itinerary exclusively, spanning roughly ten months and 28 dates across the United States and Canada. Stops include Atlanta, San Antonio, Houston, Columbus, Pittsburgh, Grand Rapids, Detroit, New York City and more.
Tickets go on sale Oct. 2 at 10 a.m. local time. An artist presale begins Sept. 30.
What has Shlesinger done to build this profile?
Shlesinger has released seven stand-up specials. Her latest, "A Different Animal," premiered on Amazon Prime Video in 2025. It follows six Netflix specials: "Hot Forever," "Unveiled," "War Paint," "Freezing Hot," "Confirmed Kills" and "Elder Millennial."
She also wrote and stars in the romantic dramedy "Chasing Summer," which premiered at the Sundance Film Festival.
The tour leans heavily on theatres and performing arts centers rather than clubs, a routing choice that reflects her transition from Netflix headliner to arena-adjacent touring act.
