Ready to Laugh? SNL Star Set to Bring Live Comedy Show to Upstate NY
A legend of Saturday Night Live, and the big screen, is bringing his touring show to Upstate New York.
The legend in question, is Adam Sandler. The comedic powerhouse recently announced dates for his Adam Sandler Live tour, and a few of the shows will be happening in the Empire State. Given that Sandler is originally from Brooklyn, this shouldn't come as a huge surprise for fans of his.
So, where will Adam Sandler be taking his tour, and when?
Adam Sandler Live Heading to Upstate New York as Part of Fall Tour
As announced on Sandler's Twitter account earlier on Monday, his Adam Sandler Live tour is coming to Turning Stone Resort Casino Convention Center in Verona, NY on October 25, 2022. The show in Upstate New York, as well as every show in Sandler's 2022 tour, will feature a special guest that will accompany him on-stage.
If you're looking to see Sandler in concert, and can't make it to Turning Stone on the 25th, he's also coming to UBS Arena on Long Island, Mohegan Sun Arena in Uncasville, CT, and the MGM Music Hall at Fenway in Boston, MA, among other locations.
Tickets to his shows are currently available on Live Nation.
As noted by Lehigh Valley Live, this will be Sandler's first musical tour since 2018. So, even if you saw him on-tour, or saw his Netflix Special 100% Fresh that year, you can probably expect all-new material here in 2022.
Sandler was a member of Saturday Night Live from 1990 to 1995, first getting on the show at age 24. He became a box-office star following his departure from SNL, starring in classic comedies such as Billy Madison, Happy Gilmore and The Wedding Singer before the turn of the century.
More recently, Sandler's work has taken a more serious tone. Two of his recent films, Uncut Gems and Hustle, have had more serious plotlines, both of which also having something to do with the sports world. Outside of his work in front of the camera, Sandler is a huge New York sports fan, having been spotted frequently at Yankees and Knicks games over the years.
Adam Sandler is truly one-of-a-kind as a celebrity, and now, you can see him live in Upstate New York.
