4:30 PM or 8:00 PM: which Kirby show?
Wilkes-Barre has an unusually early first show. The Kirby itself lists the times as 4:30 PM and 8:00 PM (some resale sites showed 7:00 PM for the second show; the Kirby’s 8:00 PM is the one to trust).
- 4:30 PM: great if you are driving in from elsewhere in northeastern Pennsylvania and want to be home by evening, or if you want dinner downtown after the show.
- 8:00 PM: the classic Saturday night slot, dinner first and show second. Expect this one to be the more in-demand of the two.
What do Kirby Center tickets cost?
The Kirby has not published a price range we could verify, so we will not quote a face value. The tour-wide resale snapshot from September 2026 showed get-in prices of roughly US$40–60. Having two shows gives you twice the inventory to compare. 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. See ticket prices.
Is the Wilkes-Barre show suitable for teens?
The Kirby is a historic theatre, not a casino, so there is no casino 21+ rule here. The show itself carries adult language and themes, and theatres on this tour generally suggest 18+. If you are thinking of bringing a younger fan, check the Kirby event page first. Our age limit guide explains the difference between suggested and enforced limits.
What is the Not What I Ordered show like?
The official description promises brutally honest stories about relationships, family, fame, farm life, mental health and everyday chaos. It is his first world tour. No run time or opener has been published. Our what to expect page and is it worth it page help you decide.
VIP at the Kirby
The Kirby is one of the venues that published the VIP contents: a premium ticket, a group photo with Matt, Q&A access, an exclusive poster, a lanyard, a koozie, stickers and a wax melt. It is not an individual meet and greet. Make sure your VIP seats are for the show time you want. See the VIP guide.
Getting there and parking
The Kirby is right on Public Square in downtown Wilkes-Barre, with municipal garages and street parking nearby. On a two-show day, the crowd from the first show leaves as the second arrives, so give yourself extra time around 7:00 PM. Check the Kirby site for its recommended parking.
Other nearby dates
Two days earlier, Matt is in Pittsburgh (two shows, Oct 8). Westbury plays Oct 9, and Bensalem near Philadelphia follows on Feb 6, 2027. See all tour dates.
