- Go upper-level. Upper 300-level or balcony sections typically start near $45 to $75 and still offer a strong view of the stage.
- Watch last-minute drops.Resellers often slash prices 24 to 48 hours before doors open, especially for mid-week dates that haven't sold out.

Inside Bo Burnham
Bo Burnham is one of the most unusual touring figures of his generation — a YouTube-origin musical comedian who pivoted into theater rooms, then Netflix specials, then directing one of the most-discussed independent films of the 2010s, then locking himself in a single room for fifteen months and producing the pandemic-era special that arguably defined the moment. He is not a stand-up in the conventional sense and he is not on a perpetual touring cycle the way most arena-comedy headliners are. He posted his first song to YouTube in 2006 as a teenager from Hamilton, Massachusetts, signed with Comedy Central in his late teens, taped Words Words Words for the network in 2010, taped what. for YouTube in 2013, taped Make Happy for Netflix in 2016, then very publicly stepped away from live performance to deal with on-stage panic attacks. He spent the back half of the 2010s directing rather than performing — Eighth Grade in 2018 won him the DGA award for first-time feature direction — and re-emerged in 2021 with Inside, an entirely self-produced, self-directed, single-room musical-comedy special that he wrote, performed, shot, lit, edited, and scored alone in a guest house during the COVID-19 lockdown. Inside swept the comedy categories at the Emmys and Grammys and pushed Burnham back into the cultural foreground without him having to tour. This page is the catchmovement hub for Bo Burnham live dates — when they happen — alongside the deeper context on the catalog, the films, the Inside album streams, and the specials timeline that anyone arriving on a Bo Burnham search today is actually looking for. Touring claims on this page are deliberately hedged: Burnham has not committed to a recurring tour pattern post-Inside, and the live schedule above will only populate when a verified on-sale exists.
About Bo Burnham
Robert Pickering 'Bo' Burnham was born August 21, 1990 in Hamilton, Massachusetts, the youngest of three siblings in a working-class New England household — his father ran a construction business, his mother worked as a hospice nurse. He grew up in the town's public-school system, played varsity sports, and was preparing to study experimental theater at NYU's Tisch School in 2008 when his YouTube channel turned into a national story. The first videos went up in late 2006, when he was sixteen — short, dense, deliberately uncomfortable musical-comedy bits filmed in his older brother's bedroom and posted under the handle boburnham. The early songs are essentially small-format theater monologues set to a Casio keyboard: 'My Whole Family Thinks I'm Gay,' 'New Math,' 'Sunday School,' a relentless run of internal-rhyme verses and tonal whiplash that read like a teenager who had absorbed too much Stephen Sondheim and too much Eminem in the same week. Comedy Central signed him at seventeen — at the time the youngest performer in the network's history — and Words Words Words, the hour he taped for them in 2010, established the working vocabulary: piano-and-vocals musical comedy, monologue interludes, a meta-aware running commentary on the act of standing on a stage at all. Bo Burnham's second special, what., released on YouTube and Netflix in 2013, pushed the form further into theater-and-multimedia: pre-recorded vocal tracks, lighting cues, dance, sketch, and a closing piece — 'We Think We Know You' — that doubled as a thesis statement on parasocial relationships before the term was in common use. Make Happy, the 2016 Netflix special directed by Christopher Storer (later of The Bear), tightened the technical apparatus into a fully-cued live show and ended with the 'Can't Handle This' Kanye-pastiche soliloquy that became one of the most-discussed comedy bits of the decade. Then he stopped. He stepped off the road in 2015 after a sequence of on-stage panic attacks during the Make Happy tour and spoke publicly about it in interviews — that he no longer found live performance sustainable, that the act of being watched at scale was making him unwell, that he needed to find a different way to make work. He spent the next several years directing: Eighth Grade in 2018, a feature debut shot for under two million dollars about a thirteen-year-old girl navigating the last week of middle school and a phone-saturated adolescence; the script won him a WGA nomination and the DGA's first-time feature award. He acted in Promising Young Woman in 2020, Emerald Fennell's revenge drama, which won the Academy Award for Best Original Screenplay. Then COVID-19 hit. He locked himself in a single guest-house room in Los Angeles in March 2020 and spent the next fifteen months writing, performing, shooting, lighting, editing, and scoring Bo Burnham: Inside — released on Netflix in May 2021, ninety minutes of musical comedy made entirely alone, in one room, with no crew. Inside won three Primetime Emmys (Outstanding Writing, Outstanding Directing, Outstanding Production Design for a Variety Special) and the Grammy for Best Comedy Album. The accompanying album — INSIDE (The Songs) — charted in the top ten of the Billboard 200, an essentially unheard-of result for a comedy album in the streaming era. He released a follow-up film of outtakes — The Inside Outtakes — to YouTube in 2022. Since then his public-facing output has been intermittent by design. Bo Burnham has not announced a sustained return to live touring as of this writing, and any future live work should be assumed to be selective, theater-scale, and infrequent unless and until the live schedule above says otherwise.
Bo Burnham tour dates
Bo Burnham is not on a continuous touring cycle and has not been since the Make Happy tour wrapped in the mid-2010s. He stepped away from live performance after experiencing panic attacks on stage during that run and has spoken publicly — in interviews, in his own work, and in the Inside material itself — about the difficulty of sustained live work at the scale his audience would now demand. Any Bo Burnham live appearance in the current cycle should be treated as a one-off or short-run event rather than a tour leg. The live schedule above pulls directly from the verified on-sale feed; if dates are listed, they are real and ticketed, and if no dates are listed, that reflects the reality that Burnham is not actively on the road. Historically, his live shows ran at the 1,500-to-3,500-seat theater scale — the Beacon Theatre in New York, the Wiltern in Los Angeles, Massey Hall in Toronto, the Eventim Apollo in London, plus university theater rooms on the early-career college-circuit run. The shows were technically dense by stand-up standards: full lighting cues, pre-recorded vocal tracks, projection mapping, and a tightly-blocked staging plan more in line with a theater piece than a comedy hour. If new dates are ever announced, expect that scale and that production posture rather than an arena-comedy ticket. Festival appearances and one-night benefit shows — when they happen — typically land on shorter notice than a traditional on-sale.
Bo Burnham tickets
When Bo Burnham tickets do go on sale, they go through Ticketmaster, AXS, See Tickets, and the relevant venue box offices depending on the building. The historical pattern — from the Make Happy tour and the earlier what. promotional dates — was a single public on-sale with limited or no presale tiers, with venue-direct holds going to local members and donor lists at theater rooms like the Beacon. Pricing on past Bo Burnham theater dates landed in roughly the $45–$120 band across the room, with orchestra and front-mezzanine seats at the top of the band and balcony pricing at the lower end. Given how long it has been since a sustained tour and how strong the Inside-era audience now is, any future on-sale should be expected to clear quickly and to push secondary inventory on StubHub, SeatGeek, Vivid Seats, and TickPick well above face value within hours. Because there is no current rolling tour to anchor expectations, the safest assumption for fans tracking a Bo Burnham return is to be on his email list and to monitor his official social accounts directly — he has historically announced new live work on his own channels first rather than through a publicity rollout. The schedule above on this page will populate any verified on-sale automatically; if it shows nothing, there is nothing currently ticketed.
Bo Burnham setlist and what to expect from the show
Bo Burnham's live show, when it runs, is closer to a one-man theater piece than a traditional stand-up set. The historical Make Happy and what. setlists were built around a fixed sequence of songs — performed live on stage piano with the rest of the arrangement pre-recorded and triggered by cue — interleaved with monologue pieces and a tightly-scripted lighting and projection design. Recurring material from the catalog that would likely show up in any future live work includes pieces from Words Words Words ('Rant,' 'Sad,' 'Words Words Words'), what. ('Repeat Stuff,' 'From God's Perspective,' 'We Think We Know You'), Make Happy ('Straight White Male,' 'Lower Your Expectations,' 'Can't Handle This'), and the Inside catalog ('Welcome to the Internet,' 'Bezos I,' 'All Eyes On Me,' 'White Woman's Instagram,' 'Comedy,' 'That Funny Feeling,' 'How the World Works,' 'Goodbye'). Inside was not built for live performance — it was scored, shot, and edited as a film, not a stage show — and Bo Burnham himself has been clear in interviews that translating it to live is not straightforward. Any future Bo Burnham live show should be expected to draw from the full catalog rather than recreate Inside in sequence. The phone policy at past Bo Burnham theater dates was looser than at, for instance, an Andrew Schulz show — no Yondr pouches at most stops — but recording during the show was discouraged and the room culture historically respected that.
Tour cities
New York
When Bo Burnham did live theater dates in the prior touring window, New York stops landed at the Beacon Theatre on the Upper West Side and at Town Hall in Midtown — both classic 2,000-to-3,000-seat theater rooms with strong acoustics for the piano-and-vocal staging that the show requires. The Beacon's orchestra pricing historically ran in the $80–$140 band for Bo Burnham dates; Town Hall ran $60–$120 across the room. If a future Bo Burnham live date lands in New York, those rooms — plus possibly Radio City Music Hall on the high end — are the most likely fits given the production posture of his past tours. No current Bo Burnham New York date should be assumed unless the live schedule above reflects it. The New York audience for Bo Burnham is heavily theater-and-arts coded and skews younger and more queer than the rooms his early-career college-circuit run filled — Inside reset who shows up.
Los Angeles
Los Angeles is Bo Burnham's home base — the guest-house room where Inside was filmed is in LA, his directing-and-film work runs out of the city, and historical LA tour stops landed at the Wiltern on Wilshire and the Greek Theatre in Griffith Park. The Wiltern is a 1,850-seat art-deco theater with a hard-edged sound profile that suits the staging Burnham historically used; the Greek is an outdoor 5,800-seat amphitheater used for the larger summer-scale dates on past tours. If future Bo Burnham LA dates appear, the Wiltern, the Greek, the Dolby Theatre in Hollywood, and the Walt Disney Concert Hall are all plausible fits depending on the scale and the staging plan. The LA audience for Bo Burnham is the most film-and-industry-coded room on any imagined future route — expect a meaningful share of the crowd to be working in production, writing, or directing themselves.
Toronto
Toronto Bo Burnham theater dates in the historical touring window landed at Massey Hall — the city's 2,750-seat Yonge-Street theater room with strong sight lines and an acoustic profile that works well for piano-and-vocal staging. Sony Centre (now Meridian Hall) and Roy Thomson Hall are the other plausible theater rooms for any future Bo Burnham Toronto date. The Toronto crowd for Bo Burnham is heavily university-and-arts coded — strong overlap with the U of T, Ryerson (TMU), and York University audiences — and Inside reset the demographic toward a younger, more streaming-native room. Massey Hall pricing historically ran in the CAD $70–$140 band for Bo Burnham nights. No current Toronto date should be assumed; if one is announced, this page will reflect it.
Chicago
Chicago Bo Burnham dates in the past touring window landed at the Chicago Theatre on State Street and the Auditorium Theatre on Congress — both classic 3,500-to-4,000-seat theater rooms with strong acoustics for the staging the show requires. The Chicago audience for Bo Burnham is regionally diverse — pulling from the city, the suburbs, the U of Chicago and Northwestern audiences, and the broader Midwest streaming-native crowd — and Inside reset the demographic toward a younger room than the college-circuit early-career tours filled. Chicago Theatre orchestra pricing on past Bo Burnham dates landed in the $80–$140 band. If a future Bo Burnham Chicago date appears, those rooms are the most likely fits given the production posture.
Boston
Boston is Bo Burnham's home region — he was born and raised in Hamilton, Massachusetts, about half an hour north of the city, and Boston dates carry the hometown weight on the historical route. Past Bo Burnham Boston dates landed at the Wang Theatre at the Boch Center on Tremont Street — a 3,500-seat downtown theater with a strong acoustic profile — and at the Orpheum Theatre on Hamilton Place. The Boston audience for Bo Burnham is the densest hometown crowd on any imagined future route, with a meaningful share of friends, family, and former classmates in the room on any local date. Wang Theatre orchestra pricing on past Bo Burnham dates landed in the $80–$140 band. Any future Boston Bo Burnham date is the one most likely to sell out fastest.
Philadelphia
Philadelphia Bo Burnham dates in the past touring window landed at the Tower Theater in Upper Darby and at the Academy of Music in Center City. Both are classic theater rooms in the 2,400-to-3,000-seat range with strong sight lines for the staging the show requires. The Philadelphia audience for Bo Burnham is university-and-arts coded — Penn, Temple, Drexel, and the broader Tri-State streaming-native crowd — and the city's proximity to New York means a meaningful share of any Philadelphia on-sale will be New York buyers picking up the cheaper ticket. Tower Theater orchestra pricing historically ran in the $65–$130 band for Bo Burnham dates. If a future Philadelphia date appears, the Tower and the Met Philadelphia on North Broad Street are the most likely fits.
Washington
Washington DC Bo Burnham dates in the past touring window landed at the Warner Theatre on E Street downtown and at the Lincoln Theatre on U Street. The Warner is a 1,847-seat downtown theater room with strong acoustics; the Lincoln is a smaller 1,225-seat historic theater that has hosted the earlier-career Bo Burnham dates. The DC audience for Bo Burnham is policy-and-academia coded — Georgetown, GW, American, and a meaningful federal-employee streaming-native crowd — and Inside's politically-engaged material lands particularly well in the room. Warner Theatre orchestra pricing historically ran in the $75–$140 band for Bo Burnham nights. If a future DC date appears, the Warner is the most likely fit given the production posture of the historical tours.
London
Bo Burnham's London dates in the historical touring window landed at the Eventim Apollo (Hammersmith Apollo) in West London — a 5,000-seat art-deco theater with a strong acoustic profile that suits piano-and-vocal staging — and at the Palladium in the West End on smaller-scale earlier-career runs. The London audience for Bo Burnham is the largest non-North-American audience on any imagined future route, with meaningful overlap with the UK theater-and-arts ecosystem and a particularly engaged Inside-era crowd. UK on-sales for Bo Burnham historically ran through See Tickets and AXS UK rather than Ticketmaster's US system. Eventim Apollo stalls pricing on past Bo Burnham dates landed in the £45–£100 band. No current London Bo Burnham date should be assumed unless the live schedule above reflects it.
