Viral comedian Matt Rife is going to be bringing his new tour to Des Moines in 2025! The Stay Golden Tour is coming to Wells Fargo Arena on Sunday, June 8th at 7 p.m.

According to his Wikipedia page, 29-year-old Comedian Matt Rife started doing comedy when he was just 15-years-old. He released his first self-produced comedy special Only Fans in 2021, followed by Matthew Steven Rife and Walking Red Flag in 2023. His popularity grew significantly throughout 2023 thanks to TikTok and social media, nabbing him his first ever Netflix special. Natural Selection debuted on the streaming service on November 15th of last year. His second Netflix special Lucid, a crowd work special, was released this past August.

Not only is Matt a comedian and actor, but now he's an author, too! Wells Fargo Arena's website says Matt will release a memoir this December called Your Mom’s Gonna Love Me.

Matt has had huge success with his ProbleMATTic World Tour, which made a stop in Cedar Rapids last November. I remember both shows selling out IMMEDIATELY. The Wells Fargo website reads:

"His current tour sold over 600,000 tickets in under 48 hours, to become one of the largest comedy tours in over 20 years."

I have no doubt that the Stay Golden Tour is going to sell quickly, so you'll definitely want to snag those tickets early! They'll go on sale this Friday, November 22nd at noon. You can purchase them online HERE.
