Duncan Trussell Reveals Upcoming Tour Dates

Comedy star hits the road again with live shows asking his fan base: ‘Where Should We Go?’

By Poulami Nag

Comedian, actor and long-time podcaster Duncan Trussell has just opened the floor for more live shows, teasing fans with “New dates!!!!! Where to next?” in an Instagram update this week. The post, which features Trussell on stage under bright spotlights and clutching his signature microphone, has sent his devoted followers scouring tour maps and pitching their hometowns for the next stop.

History On The Road

Trussell first brought his free-wheeling humor to live audiences in 2018, turning his hit podcast The Duncan Trussell Family Hour into intimate theater events. Since then, he’s played everything from small comedy clubs to sold-out performing arts centers. His routines blend surreal storytelling with personal reflection—a style that’s earned him a fiercely loyal fan base and critical praise across the comedy circuit.

Born in Asheville, North Carolina, in 1974, Trussell broke into stand-up in Los Angeles before expanding into acting and voice work (including roles on Adventure Time and Disney’s Mighty Magiswords). But it’s been his far-reaching conversations with guests on DTFH—ranging from neuroscientists to fellow comedians—that solidified his reputation as a boundary-pushing storyteller.

Fans Engage Online

In the new Instagram post (https://www.instagram.com/p/DLArkqrOU3D/), Trussell captioned a candid shot of himself mid-set with, “New dates!!!!! Where to next?” Already, replies have flooded in: cities as varied as Portland, Atlanta, Toronto and Austin are vying for attention. One fan even suggested Reykjavik, Iceland—with dozens of others pledging to travel if he picks a spot off the beaten path.

This isn’t the first time he’s crowdsourced location ideas. In an earlier update (January 2022), he asked, “See you there! Where to next?” after announcing his spring 2022 dates. That post similarly generated a groundswell of responses, leading to additional shows in Seattle and Vancouver to meet fan demand.

Across both announcements, Trussell’s visual style remains consistent: a grainy, high-contrast image of him framed by darkness and the glare of a single spotlight. It underscores the intimate vibe of his live performances, where audience laughter and candid conversations feel as spontaneous as his podcast interviews.

Looking Ahead

While Trussell hasn’t revealed specific venues or regions yet, industry insiders note that live comedy is enjoying a resurgence as pandemic restrictions lift. Comedians who embraced digital formats are now eager to reconnect in person, and Trussell’s unique blend of humor and heady topics positions him to draw crowds in a range of markets—from coastal art hubs to Midwestern college towns.

Fans can expect another round of date announcements in the coming days, along with ticket-sale details on Trussell’s official website and mailing list. As always, he’s likely to sprinkle in surprise elements—whether that’s an unannounced guest appearance on stage or a bonus live recording of DTFH.

Whether you’re in Los Angeles, London or Louisville, one thing’s clear: Duncan Trussell is ready to hit the road again, and he wants you in the driver’s seat. His simple question—“Where to next?”—has become a rallying cry for a comedy community hungry for shared experiences and late-night laughter.

Stay tuned for the official reveal of venues and dates, and in the meantime, start lobbying your hometown on social media. This could be the night you introduce a friend to one of comedy’s most free-spirited voices—or finally see Trussell riff live about everything from mysticism to microwave burritos.

Keep your calendars open and your location pitches ready—his next stop might be closer than you think.
