Nate Bargatze has set a Guinness World Record for the most tickets sold on a stand-up tour, with 2,045,040 tickets sold for the Big Dumb Eyes World Tour as of mid-August 2025.

This record surpasses the previous all-time record held by Jeff Dunham, who sold 1,981,720 tickets across 386 venues in 35 months and eight days.

Bargatze achieved the 2,045,040-ticket milestone after 16 months and 10 days on the road, spanning 129 venues since early April 2025.

Known for clean, observational, family-friendly material, Bargatze has risen from a Nashville comedian to a global touring headliner.

He has been recognized as the world’s top-earning comedian by Pollstar and as the highest one-year earning comedy performer in history by Billboard.

Bargatze set the all-time comedy attendance record at the Delta Center in Salt Lake City.

During the Big Dumb Eyes World Tour, Bargatze broke 84 venue records, including selling out three consecutive Bridgestone Arena performances in Nashville in a single calendar year.

Those Bridgestone Arena sellouts in Nashville marked a feat previously achieved only by Taylor Swift and Garth Brooks at that venue.
