Shane Gillis Announces Massive Hometown Show at Lincoln Financial Field

PHILADELPHIA, PA – August 22, 2024 – Comedian and actor Shane Gillis, a Philadelphia native and die-hard Eagles fan, is set to make a triumphant return to the City of Brotherly Love with a colossal comedy show at Lincoln Financial Field on July 17, 2026.

The “Tires” star, known for his sharp wit and relatable humor, announced the one-night-only event this week. Expected to draw over 60,000 fans, the show promises to be the largest headline performance of Gillis’ career. Special guests will be announced at a later date, sparking speculation about potential appearances from fellow comedians and even Eagles players, perhaps tight end Dallas Goedert?

“Lincoln Financial Field is thrilled to set the stage this summer for one of the world’s biggest entertainers in Shane Gillis,” said Brian Napoli, senior vice president of corporate partnerships for the Philadelphia Eagles. “Shane has always been an incredibly supportive Eagles fan whose local roots tied to the region will serve as a great homecoming. We value the relationship we share with Shane and look forward to creating a truly special evening for him and his many fans at Lincoln Financial Field on July 17.”

Gillis, who hails from Mechanicsburg, PA, and graduated from West Chester University, has deep roots in the Philadelphia area. He honed his comedic skills in the city, winning Philly’s Phunniest tournament at Helium Comedy Club in 2016. Since then, he’s catapulted to stardom with appearances on “Saturday Night Live” and the ESPYs, as well as successful Netflix specials and his critically acclaimed series, “Tires.”

This show at The Linc will be a true homecoming for Gillis, blending his love of comedy with his passion for the Philadelphia Eagles.
