Wil Anderson Announces 2026 Tour
AFTER A SOLD-OUT NATIONAL TOUR IN 2025, WIL ANDERSON IS BACK FOR MORE.
Australian comedy marvel, Wil Anderson, returns in 2026 with his legendary, 100% improvised stand-up show, Whatchu Talkin’ ‘Bout Wil?
No script, no recordings, no safety net; every night a brand-new show is created exclusively for the audience in the room.
Wil’s 2025 tour saw packed houses across the country as comedy enthusiasts flocked to witness one of Australia’s funniest and sharpest minds in full flight, unscripted, unfiltered, and unpredictable. In 2026, he’s doing it all over again.
This isn’t your average stand-up show. With nothing pre-planned or rehearsed, Anderson dives headfirst into the unknown, crafting an evening of laughter and lightning-fast wit on the spot. Expect Wil’s trademark razor-sharp observations, spontaneous crowd work and quick-fire riffs that have made him one of the most celebrated and respected voices in Australian comedy.
Performing in intimate venues across the country, these limited shows will sell out fast.
Wil is the host of ABC TV’s Gruen, smash hit podcasts Wilosophy and TOFOP, standout performer on Taskmaster Australia, a Helpmann award winner, six-time Melbourne Comedy Festival People’s Choice Award recipient and 2022’s Director’s Choice winner and Best of the Fest at the Sydney Comedy Festival respectively.
