Kevin Hart: Comedian and film star bringing Acting My Age stand up tour to Australia in September
Comedy superstar Kevin Hart will bring his larger-than-life stand-up show Down Under this year, launching his Acting My Age tour at Perth's RAC Stadium on September 23. Announcing a very limited nationwide run, the star will head east for singular performances in Sydney and Melbourne on the 25th and 26th respectively. Hart's return to Australia marks his first tour since 2023's Reality Check, with Billboard recognising the performer as the Highest Grossing Comedian of that year. The diminutive joker has never been short on laughs, with his ninth stand-up special currently being rolled out in the US. Aside from carving a successful stand-up career, the 46-year-old has become a multi-hyphenate Hollywood drawcard with interests in film, TV, podcast, and more. Hart's most notable films include Get Hard, Ride Along, and the Jumanji series, raking in a whopping $4.23 billion of global revenue across his career. The star earned Emmy nominations for his acting role in Die Hart and the sequel Die Hart 2, with his 2020 Netflix comedy special Zero Fu**ks Given bagging him a Grammy nomination for Best Comedy Album. Hart's September jaunt around Australia will be entirely phone-free, as has become a trend for touring comics and musical artists. But that's not all that's caught the eye of fans, with a couple of glaring tour omissions sparking responses that weren't so tongue-in-cheek. 'Come to Brisbane please!' several fans said on Live Nation's tour announcement, while others were left asking, 'No Adelaide?' Pre-sale tickets begin from July 18, with general sale available from July 22.
