Josh Johnson, the Emmy-nominated comedian, writer, and NAACP award-winner known for his work on Comedy Central’s The Daily Show, is taking his comedy to the masses with a brand-new stand-up run – The Flowers Tour. Recently dubbed by WIRED as “the funniest guy on the internet,” Johnson’s tour promises a mix of his signature storytelling, sharp social commentary, and hilariously relatable observations about life.
The Flowers Tour kicks off on January 10 at the Pantages Theater in Minneapolis making stops across the U.S. in Houston, Cleveland, Los Angeles, and more. Additional legs of the tour will be announced in the near future. Tickets will be available starting with an Artist Presale beginning Wednesday, October 30 at 12 PM ET. Additional presales will run throughout the week ahead of the general onsale beginning Friday, November 1 at 12 PM ET at LiveNation.com. Tickets for shows in Providence, RI and Austin, TX will go on sale at a later date.
With nearly 4 million followers across social media, Johnson has rapidly become a star on the rise. He’s already made waves in the comedy world, headlining clubs, colleges, and theaters globally, while releasing over 24 hours of stand-up this year alone. His recent stand-up special, Josh Johnson: Up Here Killing Myself, premiered on Peacock to rave reviews, further solidifying him as a “naturally gifted storyteller.” Johnson’s debut hour-long special, #(Hashtag), was released by Comedy Central in 2021, showcasing his distinct comedic voice.
