Bert Kreischer Gets Lewis Black, Tiffany Haddish On Board for 2023’s ‘Fully Loaded’
The Bert Kreischer-led comedy festival roadshow “Fully Loaded” is back for another round.
“Fully Loaded,” a unique multi-performer comedy tour of outdoor venues, grew out of Kreischer’s pandemic-driven drive-in tour and the 2022 edition landed the comedian at No. 4. on Pollstar‘s Top Grossing Comedy Tours list.
This year, he’ll be joined on the 16-stop tour by Mark Normand, Shane Gillis, Tiffany Haddish, Stavros Halkias, Fortune Feimster, Dave Attell, Lewis Black, Jim Norton, Andrew Santino, Big Jay Oakerson, Jay Pharoah, Dan Soder, Chad Daniels, Ralph Barbosa, Rosebud Baker and Tammy Pescatelli.
“Fully Loaded” kicks off June 14 at Forest Hills Stadium in New York and hits St. Louis, New Orleans and Las Vegas before wrapping up at The Gorge at George in Washington September 15. See the full routing below.
Kreischer himself has the capacity to play a variety of venues — his current run includes arenas and theaters on both sides of the Atlantic. Last year’s “Fully Loaded” wrapped with a 5,470-ticket sell-out at the Brandon Amphitheater in Brandon, MS, grossing $358,365, according to Pollstar Boxoffice reports. The highest-grossing show reported was at Lawrenceville, GA’s Coolray Field June 25 with a $562,662 haul on 8,441 tickets.
Pre-sale tickets are on-sale via the festival website. General on-sale begins March 10 at 10 a.m. local.
