Matt Rife, Gabriel Iglesias & More Lead June’s Comedy Boxscore Report
Here's a detailed breakdown of the biggest touring comedians of the month.
Billboard published the June Boxscore report on Tuesday (July 29), with none other than Beyoncé leading the charge, adding another $136 million to Cowboy Carter Tour’s record-breaking gross. But while the biggest stars of country, Latin and more packed stadiums, comedians were road warrior-ing their way to sold-out theaters and arenas. Here, we’re looking at the five biggest comedy tours of June.
In May, Billboard launched its comedy hub with rundowns of the biggest touring comedians of the midyear Boxscore period (Oct. 1, 2024-March 31, 2025) and of May 2025. Sebastian Maniscalco and Nate Bargatze topped those lists, respectively, but June has a new leader.
Comparing this month’s list with the previous two, one can see the 2025 year-end ranking taking shape, as all five acts repeat. Three comedians, including Nos. 1 and 2, were on May’s chart. The other two cracked the midyear ranking but missed in May.
This month’s top five comedy tours grossed a combined $16.7 million and sold 236,000 tickets. That marks a 26% drop in grosses from last month’s top five, though June’s group sold almost the same number of tickets (down less than half a percentage point).
Beneath the top five, a number of co-headline groups bubble under. Tina Fey and Amy Poehler grossed $2.2 million. The combo of Jon Stewart, John Mulaney and Pete Davidson brought in $1.4 million. And The 2 Johnnies – “Johnny Smacks” McMahon and “Johnny B” O’Brien – earned $1.3 million in Dublin.
