BERT KREISCHER EXTENDS FIRST-EVER DRIVE-IN COMEDY TOUR AND THE FINDLAY TOYOTA CENTER WILL BE THE ONLY ARIZONA STOP

PRESCOTT VALLEY, AZ – SEPTEMBER 9, 2020 —Renowned comedian, podcast host and author Bert Kreischer is extending Hot Summer Nights Tour 2020 into the Fall and adding the Findlay Toyota Center to his hugely successful outdoor run. As the first-ever stand-up comedian to embark on a drive-in comedy tour, Kreischer and his crew of comedians have been barnstorming the country via tour bus and performing to sold-out crowds at drive-in theaters and other socially distanced outdoor venues across America since June. The show will remain compliant with social distancing guidelines put forth by local and state jurisdictions, allowing fans to enjoy the experience from the comfort of their own vehicles.

Tickets for the next leg of Hot Summer Nights Tour 2020 go on sale this Thursday, September 10th at 10:00 am. Fans who follow Bert can access tickets before the general public via his artist pre-sale.

“We are very excited to be the only stop in Arizona for one of the top names in comedy right now,” said Sheila Anderson, Spectra Marketing Manager for the Findlay Toyota Center. “Live entertainment is what we do best. We accepted the challenge and have continued to bring great events to Northern Arizona.

Bert Kreischer wasn’t afraid to take a chance on a full drive-in tour, even in the middle of a pandemic. “I don’t mind being the guinea pig, I don’t mind taking shots,” says Kreischer after his first six shows grossed $413,957 with an overall attendance of 7,857. After his shows kept selling out, Bert knew he wanted to extend his Hot Summer Nights Tour: “This is a f***ing home run, please line up more of these.”

Kreischer is known for his unique brand of comedy, which interweaves party-boy antics with humorous anecdotes about family and fatherhood. Most recently, he released his second Netflix Original stand-up comedy special Bert Kreischer: Hey Big Boy in March 2020. The special earned rave reviews from critics and fans alike. His previous comedy specials include Bert Kreischer: Secret Time on Netflix, Bert Kreischer: The Machine on Showtime, and Bert Kreischer: Comfortably Dumb on Comedy Central. He also hosted the FX television series Hurt Bert as well as Bert the Conqueror and Trip Flip on Travel Channel.

Additionally, Kreischer is one of the most prominent comedians in the podcasting landscape. He is the producer and host of Bertcast, a weekly comedy podcast on the All Things Comedy Network. He also co-hosts the 2 Bears 1 Cave podcast with Tom Segura and the Bill and Bert podcast with Bill Burr.

The Findlay Toyota Center will adhere to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) recommended guidelines as well as all state and local health mandates. For more info on the event, ticket pricing, and safety guidelines, please visit the Burt Kreischer event page on our website.

About Bert Kreischer - Bert Kreischer is an American stand-up comedian, actor, writer, and host who performs to sellout crowds across the country. His brand new stand up special “Hey Big Boy”, as well as “Secret Time” and “The Machine” are currently streaming globally on NETFLIX.  Described as having a “rare and incredible talent” (Interrobang), Bert has evolved from being named Rolling Stone’s 1997 "Number One Partier in the Nation" to one of the top names in comedy. Between his four stand-up specials, his three podcasts: “Bertcast,” “2 Bears 1 Cave,” and “BillBert,” his YouTube cooking show: “Something’s Burning,” his book Life of the Party: Stories of a Perpetual Man-Child (2014), Bert has succeeded in finding the elusive blend of “being a cringe comedian with real insight” (Interrobang).  Lauded as one of the best storytellers of his generation, Bert seamlessly and sincerely shares anecdotes about his family and fatherhood while showing his ability to prove “that there’s a way to take his [party-boy] antics into middle-age,” (Forbes). His infamous story about robbing a train with the Russian Mafia was recently optioned by Legendary (the studio behind The Hangover Series, Jurassic World, and Straight Outta Compton) to be turned into a movie. After the successful debut of The Body Shots World Tour in 2019, where he quickly sold out theaters and added shows in almost every market, Bert launched a brand new tour in 2020, The Berty Boy Tour, which includes shows in even larger venues across the country.
