Matt Mathews Tacoma: Emerald Queen Casino, Sunday Sept 27

Why a Sunday show can be the smart last-minute pick

Tacoma closes out the tour’s opening Pacific Northwest weekend, after Calgary on Friday and Coquitlam on Saturday. Sunday shows often draw a slightly smaller late-buying crowd than Saturdays, and the 7:00 PM start gets you home at a reasonable hour before Monday. With four days to go, that makes Tacoma the most relaxed of the three to shop for. It is still one show only, so compare the table above before choosing.

How much are Tacoma tickets right now?

There is no published face value for this date, and resale moves every day. As a tour-wide reference, the cheapest resale seats we saw in September 2026 were roughly US$40–60. The live listings below show today’s actual prices for Emerald Queen, fees included at checkout. Our ticket prices page tracks how prices shift across the tour.

TicketNetwork is a resale marketplace, so prices there can sit above face value. The official primary seller for this date is Ticketmaster or the venue box office.

Is the Tacoma show 21+?

Very likely, but check. Emerald Queen is a casino, and US casino showrooms usually admit 21 and over only. That is stricter than the "suggested 18+" guidance most theatres on this tour use. If anyone in your group is under 21, confirm on the venue’s event page before buying, and bring government photo ID either way. See the age limit guide for every venue type.

Is this the new tour or the Boujee On A Budget show?

It is the new one. Not What I Ordered is his first world tour, and the official copy promises stories about relationships, family, fame, farm life, mental health and everyday chaos. The previous tour is now a free special on YouTube, which you can read about on our Boujee On A Budget page. For show length and format (no official run time published), see what to expect.

What does the VIP package include?

The Not What I Ordered Q&A Experience bundles one premium ticket, a group photo with Matt, access to a Q&A session and VIP merch: an exclusive poster, lanyard, koozie, sticker pack and wax melt. No official price is listed. Our VIP guide explains how it works on show day.

Parking and arrival

Emerald Queen is right by I-5 on the Tacoma and Fife side, with on-site parking at the casino. Sunday evening traffic on I-5 is usually lighter than on weekdays, but give yourself time to park, walk in and clear any ID check. The venue’s website has current parking and entry details.

Other nearby dates

Across the border, Coquitlam plays the night before. If none of this weekend works, the next West Coast chances are Santa Barbara and Reno in May 2027. Full schedule: tour dates.
