Shane Gillis Announces Massive One-Night Show at Lincoln Financial Field With Ticket Sales Already Underway

Comedian Shane Gillis is set for the biggest performance of his career with a one-night-only show scheduled for 8 p.m. on July 17 at Lincoln Financial Field in Philadelphia. The announcement marks a major milestone for the Mechanicsburg-born comedian, who has steadily grown into one of the most popular names in stand-up.

Lincoln Financial Field, home of the Philadelphia Eagles, can hold roughly 60,000 people, making this Gillis’s largest headlining event to date. According to a report from Deadline, the scale of this upcoming show surpasses anything he has done before.

The stadium itself has expressed excitement about hosting the event. Brian Napoli, senior vice president of Corporate Partnerships for the Philadelphia Eagles, said the venue is thrilled to welcome one of the world’s biggest entertainers to its stage this summer. His statement adds to the sense of magnitude surrounding the show.

Gillis is currently wrapping up a 39-city international tour, which includes three shows in January at Madison Square Garden in New York City. This Philadelphia date fits into what has already been a landmark year for him, both in touring and public visibility.

Locally, Gillis is also performing a sold-out show at the Harrisburg Comedy Zone in Fairview Township tonight. It’s a full-circle moment considering he began his comedy journey right in central Pennsylvania before eventually relocating to Philadelphia to pursue the craft more seriously.

Beyond stand-up, he stars in the scripted Netflix series Tires and co-hosts the popular Matt and Shane’s Secret Podcast with fellow comedian Matt McCusker. His career has surged further in recent years with high-profile roles such as hosting Saturday Night Live and the ESPYS.

The July show will also include special guests, though their names have not yet been announced. Fans can expect updates closer to the event as additional details are released.

Ticket access has already begun, starting with presale tickets available on Ticketmaster (https://www.ticketmaster.com) as of today. General ticket sales are scheduled to open at 10 a.m. on November 28, giving fans multiple opportunities to secure seats before the stadium fills up.

Resale platforms are also gearing up for demand. The cheapest tickets currently listed for the tour can be found on Viagogo (https://www.viagogo.com), offering another option for fans who miss primary sales or are looking for different seating categories.

This announcement reinforces Gillis’s rapid rise from local stand-up regular to major stadium headliner. With a huge venue, active national tour, popular streaming projects, and a strong Pennsylvania fan base, the show is shaping up to be one of the most significant comedy events of the summer.

All eyes now turn toward July as fans wait to see how Gillis plans to fill a 60,000-seat stadium for a single night. With his momentum, the support of the Eagles’ organization, and a home-state audience, the energy surrounding this event is already building fast.
