Ricky Gervais has announced three North American dates for his stand-up tour “Legend,” produced by Live Nation. The comedian will play Radio City Music Hall in New York on April 9, 2027, United Center in Chicago on April 12, 2027, and Scotiabank Arena in Toronto on August 14, 2027. Tickets go on general sale Friday, November 13 at 10 a.m. local time via Ticketmaster, with presales beginning November 11 through Dutch Barn and Citi Entertainment.

The North American shows follow a UK run that the announcement describes as sold out, with the tour set to continue internationally through the end of 2027. Netflix has acquired rights to the show, which will be filmed at the tour’s conclusion as Gervais’ fifth stand-up special for the streamer.

Gervais’ previous specials, “Humanity,” “Supernature,” “Armageddon” and “Mortality,” are described in the announcement as box-office record-breakers that topped Netflix’s charts, with “Armageddon” and “Mortality” each winning a Golden Globe for stand-up comedy on television.
