Taskmaster Is Crossing the Pond for a Tour
"If you're an American Taskmaster fan who watches the five competitors on the British comedy series struggle onstage to come up with a steady stream of five-letter words, humanize drawings of sausages with their own doodles, or pop balloons with darts - no, not that balloon, the other balloon - and think you can do better, your time has come."
"Taskmaster has traveled to the U.S. before, most recently in January 2025 to promote the premiere of the series' 19th season, which featured American comedian Jason Mantzoukas. This tour will hit not just New York City on January 22 and 23 but also Chicago on January 15, Boston on January 17, Philadelphia on January 19, and Washington, D.C., on January 21. Each tour date will feature different celebrity guests as well as having space available for attendees to compete."
Taskmaster is touring the United States in January 2026 with Greg Davies and creator/assistant Alex Horne appearing as hosts. The tour includes shows in Chicago (Jan 15), Boston (Jan 17), Philadelphia (Jan 19), Washington, D.C. (Jan 21) and New York City (Jan 22–23). Each date will feature different celebrity guests and selected audience members competing onstage, plus audience-wide stage tasks designed by Horne, a Q&A with Davies and Horne, and behind-the-scenes footage. Tickets go on general sale December 9 with a mailing-list presale on December 8. Season 21 has already been filmed and recent plus upcoming specials will air in December and January.
