Weird Al just announced he’s embarking on his ‘Bigger & Weirder Tour’ that will send him and special guest Puddles Pity Party to venues all over North America from June from September 2025.
Early in the run, the “Like A Surgeon” singer will make four stops in New York.
First, Yankovic is slated to swing into Buffalo’s Darien Lake Amphitheater on July 11. After that, he’ll bring his one-of-a-kind parodies to New York City’s Madison Square Garden on July 12, Bethel’s Bethel Woods Center For The Arts on July 13 and Saratoga Springs’ Saratoga Performing Arts Center on July 17.
And, yes, Weird Al really is going bigger and weirder this time as promised.
“We’re back to doing a full-production high-energy show and playing the hits… and we’re super-sizing the band for this one – adding 4 more musicians! – so we can play a few things we’ve never been able to play live before!” the 64-year-old shared on Instagram. “This show is gonna be INSANE!”
As of now, there is no news about whether or not Yankovic has another album in the works; most recently, he dropped the rousing four-minute “Polkamania!” — which reimagines tunes by Billie Eilish, Adele, Miley Cyrus, Olivia Rodrigo, Taylor Swift and more as polka — back in July.
Fans can purchase tickets for all upcoming ‘Bigger & Weirder’ shows on sites like Vivid Seats; the official on-sale is Friday, Sept. 27.
Vivid Seats is a secondary market ticketing platform, and prices may be higher or lower than face value, depending on demand.

Weird Al new music
This past July, Weird Al released two singles. On top of the aforementioned “Polkamania!,” he also put out “Deja Vu (But Worse)” with The Gregory Brothers.
In the five-minute ditty, Yankovic belts over auto-tuned soundbites from President Joe Biden and Republican candidate Donald Trump. Unfortunately, the track is already a bit dated since Biden dropped out of the race after its release.
That being said, it’s still very fun and includes a deft “Temple of Doom” burn.
If you’d like to hear both goofy tracks, you can find them here.
Puddles Pity Party
For those unfamiliar with Puddles Pity Party, who is currently on tour, we’re about to blow your mind.
The vocalist appears onstage in full clown regalia — including caked-on makeup — and delivers earnest, heartbreaking covers of songs you know and love like “All The Small Things,” “Royals,” “Mad World” and more.
