Rife's "Stay Golden Tour," launched earlier

Rife's "Stay Golden Tour," launched earlier this year, has been a monumental success. Highlights include two sold-out nights at New York's Madison Square Garden, a feat that made him the youngest comedian to ever achieve such a milestone. Beyond the Big Apple, Rife has shattered records in multiple cities. He holds the record for the most single-event tickets ever sold at Columbus’ Nationwide Arena and Seattle’s Climate Pledge Arena. He also boasts all-time ticket sales records at Manchester’s SNHU Arena and the paid seat record for the Van Andel Arena in Grand Rapids, Michigan. In Anaheim, his performance at the Honda Center marked the most tickets ever sold by a comedian in the venue's history.

Adding an exciting new dimension to select performances in 2026, Rife will be performing "in the round," offering fans a unique and immersive comedy experience. This innovative stage design promises to bring audiences closer to the comedian and create a more intimate atmosphere.

Beyond his stand-up success, Rife is also making strides in the acting world. His upcoming projects include a diverse range of films, including "Rolling Loud," an R-rated comedy from Live Nation & American High, where he stars alongside Owen Wilson. He will also appear in Netflix’s "The Altruists" with Julia Garner, the comedy "The Escort" from "Wedding Crashers" director David Dobkin, and "The Chasm," a rock climbing mockumentary with Skydance Sports, which he co-wrote and will produce.

With his "Stay Golden" tour extension, innovative stage design, and burgeoning acting career, Matt Rife is poised to continue his meteoric rise in the entertainment industry. Fans can expect more laughs, more records broken, and more opportunities to witness the comedic talent of this rising star.
