Matt’s endless list of accomplishments include an unmissable Netflix special, as well as four sold out shows at the The Dolby Theatre in Hollywood. Online, he’s amassed over 2 billion views, which should come as no surprise considering the success of his releases on YouTube.
In 2021, Rife self-produced and distributed his first one-hour comedy special, ‘Only Fans’, via YouTube and two years later, he self-released his second stand-up special, ‘Matthew Steven Rife’, before releasing a crowd work special, ‘Walking Red Flag’, only two months later. Viewers ate it up, with the release pulling 10 million views. Adding to Matt’s remarkable success in 2023 was his highly anticipated third stand-up special, ‘Matt Rife: Natural Selection’ on Netflix, which ranked in the top ten in 42 countries. He’s also starred in several MTV titles.
We’re told his current tour has sold over 600,000 tickets in less than 48 hours, but here’s the good news: ticket pre-sales begin this Thursday, March 7 at noon, and you can grab them for a full 24 hours during the pre-sales phase, before general sales begin on March 8.
See you there!
