‘KINGS OF LATE NIGHT’ COMEDY TOUR IS MAKING A STOP AT THE EVENT CENTER AT RIVERS CASINO PITTSBURGH

PITTSBURGH — June 20, 2023 — Jay Leno, Arsenio Hall, and Craig Ferguson, will light up The Event Center at Rivers Casino with side-stitching laughter on Friday, Sept. 1, at 7 p.m. Tickets are on sale now and start at $39.

Jay Leno

Acclaimed TV late night show host, admired stand-up comedian, best-selling children’s book author, much-in-demand corporate speaker, TV and movie voice-over artist, pioneering car builder and mechanic, and philanthropist … Jay Leno is widely characterized as “the hardest-working man in show business.”

Jay Leno’s late night television ratings domination included two decades as the host of the No. 1-rated “The Tonight Show with Jay Leno” — after the first two years Jay Leno never lost a single ratings year in which he served as host. Leno currently produces and is host of the CNBC primetime series “Jay Leno’s Garage,” now in its seventh season. The series debuted in October 2015 and delivered CNBC’s most-watched first season in network history. 

Arsenio Hall

Arsenio Hall became a household name with the success of his Emmy Award-winning late-night talk show “The Arsenio Hall Show.” During his initial successful five-year run as executive producer (1989-94), Hall provided a forum for cutting-edge comedy, politics and the television debut of pop superstars.

The versatile actor, comedian and producer co-wrote and co-starred in the hit comedy “Coming to America.” In 2021, Hall reprised his role as Semmi and other surprise characters in Amazon Prime’s “Coming 2 America.”

Hall has enjoyed a triumphant return to his first love of stand-up comedy, performing at venues across the country and he has released his current Netflix stand-up special “Smart & Classy,” which can be streamed in various countries across the world. He also brought back his talk show for a four-night run during the “Netflix Is a Joke Fest” in Los Angeles.

Craig Ferguson

Craig Ferguson is a multiple Grammy-nominated, Peabody and Emmy Award-winning actor, writer, producer, director and comedian with a diverse career that encompasses film, television and the stage. He is a New York Times bestselling author and has recorded numerous stand-up specials for Netflix, Epix, Comedy Central and Amazon. The wildly popular “Late Late Show with Craig Ferguson” ran on CBS for 10 years and remains a cult favorite on YouTube, racking up millions of views every year on fan-posted clips. 

“We are so excited to have these late-night comedy legends making a stop here in September,” said Shannon Redmond, vice president of marketing at Rivers Casino Pittsburgh. “Our guests are in for a night of laughs with these three!”

Tickets to see the Kings of Late Night can be purchased inside Rivers Casino or at RiversCasino.com/Pittsburgh.
