2024 has already been a monumental year for Glaser, starting with her breakout performance at the Tom Brady Roast, which gave her viral attention and confirmed her title as the “best roaster in the world.” Shortly thereafter, she premiered her highly anticipated second HBO comedy special, “Someday You'll Die,” which earned her her first Emmy nomination.

Glaser will open 2025 by hosting the 82nd annual Golden Globe Awards in January before heading to Australia and New Zealand for her debut tour.

Glaser's second HBO special, Someday You'll Die, has the record for both the best opening night for an HBO comedy special in over two years and the largest streaming audience for a comedy special in HBO Max history /Max set up. The special tackles a variety of topics with her trademark no-holds-barred humor, covering everything from her dislike of children to the realities of aging.

Her appearance in the Emmy-nominated Netflix series The Greatest Roast of All Time: Tom Brady cemented her status in comedy and earned her further recognition. Glaser also launched the Nikki Glaser Podcast, where she offers a brutally honest look into her life and pop culture.

Tickets for the tour go on sale Monday, October 28th at 11 a.m. local time.
