Pete Holmes brings his comedy tour to Newark in January

Get ready to laugh, New Jersey, because comedian Pete Holmes is making his way to the Garden State in 2027.

Known for his podcast ‘You Made it Weird,’ the self-named ‘Silly Silly Fun Boy’ will perform at NJPAC this coming Jan.

(If you haven’t seen the ‘Silly Silly Fun Boy’ special, I watched it recently and it was a delight. I’m still thinking about his bit regarding Q-tips. It’s on YouTube if you want a good chuckle.)

Holmes has several stand-up specials on HBO, Netflix, and Comedy Central.

He created and starred in HBO’s ‘Crashing’ which was produced by Judd Apatow, as well as ‘The Pete Holmes Show’ on TBS, produced by Conan O’Brien.

He was also recently in Anna Kendrick’s film ‘Woman of the Hour’ as well as 2024’s ‘The Best Christmas Pageant Ever’ and Disney’s ‘Home Sweet Home Alone.’
