Nate Bargatze’s rise from club favorite to arena-packing headliner continues with the Big Dumb Eyes World Tour, giving fans another chance to see one of comedy’s biggest names live.
The Grammy- and Emmy-nominated comic has seen a meteoric rise over the past two years, selling more than 1.2 million tickets in 2024 alone and breaking more than 20 arena records.
Known for his clean, relatable comedy and low-key delivery, Bargatze has also expanded his reach beyond stand-up. He co-wrote and will star in The Breadwinner for TriStar Pictures alongside Mandy Moore, Colin Jost, Will Forte and Kumail Nanjiani. He also recently released his first book, Big Dumb Eyes: Stories From A Simpler Mind, which debuted as a New York Times No. 1 bestseller.
With Bargatze continuing to headline major arenas across North America, Ticket Club data shows a wide range of current prices for upcoming shows. Some markets have tickets starting below $50, while several West Coast and limited-capacity stops are trending significantly higher.
Nate Bargatze Tickets Start as Low as $17
The lowest current starting price in the data comes in Bossier City, Louisiana, where tickets for Bargatze’s June 4 show at Brookshire Grocery Arena start at $17. That makes it the most affordable stop currently listed among the upcoming tour dates.
Several other early-tour stops also stand out as strong value plays for fans looking for lower entry prices. Tickets for Knoxville, Tennessee and Birmingham, Alabama both start at $25, while Greensboro, North Carolina starts at $30. Austin also offers notable value, with one June 20 event at Moody Center ATX starting at $33.
For fans focused primarily on getting in the door, these cities represent some of the best current options on the Big Dumb Eyes World Tour.
Best-Value Markets Under $50
A number of upcoming Nate Bargatze shows currently have entry prices below $50, including several arena dates in the South and Midwest.
Current starting prices under $50 include:
- Bossier City, LA — Brookshire Grocery Arena — from $29
- Knoxville, TN — Thompson Boling Arena at Food City Center — from $25
- Birmingham, AL — Legacy Arena at The BJCC — from $25
- Greensboro, NC — First Horizon Coliseum — from $30
- Austin, TX — Moody Center ATX — from $33
- Savannah, GA — Enmarket Arena — from $38
- Rosemont, IL — Allstate Arena — from $44
- Buffalo, NY — KeyBank Center — from $47
- Houston, TX — Toyota Center — from $48
That group gives fans multiple affordable options across different regions, especially compared with several higher-demand Western dates later in the tour.
Birmingham Offers One of the Strongest Overall Price Profiles
While Bossier City has the lowest starting price, Birmingham stands out because of its overall pricing profile. The May 29 show at Legacy Arena at The BJCC starts at $25, and the median ticket price in the data is just $39.
That makes Birmingham one of the most affordable markets not only for entry-level tickets, but also for fans looking beyond the lowest-priced seats. Greensboro and Bossier City also remain strong value options, with median prices of $61 and $67, respectively.
West Coast and Casino-Resort Stops Trend Higher
The highest starting prices are concentrated around several Western dates. The July 18 shows in Lincoln, California at The Venue At Thunder Valley Casino Resort currently start at $173 and $117, making them the two highest entry points in the data.
Stateline, Nevada is another premium market, with tickets for the July 11 show at Tahoe Blue Event Center starting at $116 and carrying the highest median price in the dataset at $273.
Other higher-entry markets include:
- Spokane, WA — from $82
- Hartford, CT — from $82
- San Diego, CA — from $79
- Pittsburgh, PA — from $75
- Cedar Rapids, IA — from $73
These cities may be more expensive because of demand, venue size, market conditions or limited availability in lower-priced sections.
Multiple-Show Markets Give Fans More Options
Several cities have multiple Bargatze listings, which can create useful price comparisons for fans deciding which performance to attend.
In Houston, the June 18 show starts at $48, while the June 19 show starts at $61. In Pittsburgh, the July 30 show starts at $75, while the July 31 show starts at $51, giving fans a noticeably lower-priced option on the second date.
Toronto is relatively consistent across its two August shows, with starting prices of $63 and $64 at Scotiabank Arena. Phoenix also shows a modest difference, with June 26 starting at $55 and June 27 starting at $60.
For fans in multi-show markets, comparing dates can make a meaningful difference, especially when one night has a lower starting price or a more favorable median price.
Premium Seats Push Some Markets Much Higher
While many shows have affordable entry points, premium listings climb much higher in several cities. The data shows upper-end prices reaching into the thousands in select markets, including Grand Rapids, San Jose, Pittsburgh, Buffalo and Austin.
That spread suggests a familiar pattern for major arena comedy tours: affordable seats may still be available in many cities, but premium locations, floor seats and high-demand sections can command significantly higher prices.
For Bargatze fans, the key takeaway is that the lowest get-in price does not always tell the full story. Some markets offer both low starting prices and moderate median prices, while others have affordable entry points but much steeper premium options.
Where Fans Can Find Some of the Lowest Nate Bargatze Ticket Prices
Based on the current Ticket Club data, fans looking for the lowest prices should start with Bossier City, Birmingham, Knoxville, Greensboro and Austin. Those markets currently offer some of the best entry points on the Big Dumb Eyes World Tour.
Fans looking for lower overall pricing may also want to watch Birmingham, Greensboro and Bossier City, where median prices are among the lowest in the dataset.
With Bargatze continuing to build momentum as one of the biggest names in comedy, demand could shift as each show date approaches. Fans interested in seeing the Big Dumb Eyes World Tour can compare available seats, dates and prices through Ticket Club to find the option that best fits their budget.
