Aries Spears

ARIES SPEARS - Comedy icon live in Vienna in October 2026
Support: Ray Sequoya

For 36 years, Aries Spears has been on stage - and during this time, he has become a force of nature in American stand-up comedy. Straightforward, uncompromising, and lightning-fast - his humor hits like a punch, with full force, raw and unfiltered, right in the heart. Due to sensational demand, three additional shows have been confirmed: Aries Spears will be performing live not only in Berlin but also in Cologne, Vienna, and Zurich.

The New Yorker became famous through eight legendary seasons of the cult show Mad TV, where he made comedy history alongside stars like Mike Tyson, Shaquille O’Neal, and Bill Cosby. His parodies of James Brown, Al Pacino, and his idol Eddie Murphy made him a crowd favorite - and Mad TV a successful part of the American Saturday night.

Today, Spears delights millions with his podcast, which is among the most listened-to comedy formats in the USA. On social media, he reaches over 2.5 million fans who celebrate his unique mix of sharpness, gags, and attitude.

Live, Aries Spears is an event: stand-up with pace, timing, and taboos. He talks about identity, power, pop culture, and the contradictions of everyday life - honestly and ruthlessly, with a directness that can leave you speechless one moment and laughing out loud the next.

Aries Spears is a stand-up artist who is not afraid of the truth. That is exactly what captivates his audience - and makes his shows an experience that you must see.
