Weird Al Yankovic & Puddles Pity Party at TD Pavilion

Did you know? July 19, 2025, is gonna be a momentous day in the history of Philadelphia’s Mann Center for the Performing Arts. Why? Because the one-and-only Weird Al Yankovic is winding up a corkscrew uppercut of pop song parodies, original hits, and polka medleys for the crowd at the TD Pavilion! Alongside an eight-piece expansion of his band and special guest Puddles Pity Party, the master of “Mandatory Fun” will take off this summer on his brand new concert tour titled “Bigger & Weirder.” Sixty-five dates have been confirmed on Weird Al’s itinerary (with more expected to come!), and you’re about to partake in one of his most-anticipated stops by the East Coast.

“This is kind of a ‘best of both worlds’ tour. We’ll be doing all the big crowd-pleasing parodies as well as some deep cuts for the hardcore fans – but with twice as many players on stage, everything is going to sound twice as good!” the artist shared in an official press statement.

He’s the Grammy Award-winning man, the multi-platinum myth, and the accordion-pumping legend all in one! Straight outta Lynwood and onto the stage, Weird Al Yankovic will bring his “White & Nerdy” A-game in a multimedia night brimming with musical romps and signature costume changes. The “Bigger & Weirder” show is your premier destination to experience our headlining star’s hilariously freewheeling songs firsthand following his Billboard #1 final album’s 10th Anniversary. Jam along to Weird Al’s parodies of Coolio (“Amish Paradise”), Don McLean (“The Saga Begins”), Nirvana (“Smells Like Nirvana”), Michael Jackson (“Fat” & “Eat It”), and Lady Gaga (“Perform This Way”), with riveting polka one-offs like “Polkamania!” and “The Hamilton Polka” to boot.

For the event’s opening act, Weird Al presents Puddles Pity Party (Michael Geier when he’s not moping around), a towering seven-foot clown whose height won’t be the only thing to drop your jaws. Graced with vocals that could go toe-to-toe against opera’s finest, this guest will recapture the belting baritone famed from his tenure with Primus and A Perfect Circle.

Sink into top-of-the-line seats or lay back on the outdoor lawn of the Mann’s crowning jewel, the TD Pavilion, which prides itself on phenomenal acoustics and stunning views of the city skyline. Weird Al Yankovic will find a world-class stage in this Philadelphian venue on July 19, 2025, a weekend concert further elevated by cutting-edge LED displays projecting the action from center stage.
