John Allen, better known as MrBallen, is heading out on the road. Ballen Studios says Allen will have his first-ever live tour this fall, in a show that will take the audience on an immersive adventure through some of his most captivating stories from the MrBallen Podcast: Strange, Dark & Mysterious Tales. The multi-city tour will kick off on September 26 in Dallas, followed by stops in Chicago, New York, Washington, Detroit, Houston, Philadelphia, Nashville and several other cities, before wrapping up in Atlanta on October 20.
"This is something I've dreamed about, but I never thought it could be a reality,” said Allen in a statement. “Telling stories on YouTube and on the podcast each week for millions of fans is something I absolutely love to do. Now, to be able to do that in front of those fans, feel their energy, and have a chance to meet them as well, is something that excites me to no end. I can't wait to get out there and get going."
Tickets for the tour are scheduled to go for sale June 28, although presale tickets have already been released. Fans of MrBallen’s can gain access to the presale code by watching a video on YouTube.
The live show is the latest brand extension for Allen. Earlier this year, Ballen Studios also announced the upcoming publication of Allen’s first book, “MrBallen Presents: Strange, Dark & Mysterious.” The graphic novel by Allen will contain hand-drawn adaptations of stories based on true events from his YouTube channel and additional new, exclusive stories. The graphic novel will be available for purchase at all tour stops and anywhere books are sold beginning Oct. 1.
