There are still a handful of tickets available for Naomi Watanabe’s stand-up comedy show at The Town Hall on Saturday, June 6.
The Japanese pop culture icon, who has almost 10 million Instagram followers, set a Guinness World Record for most tickets sold for a comedy show by a solo female comedian when 44,356 fans packed Tokyo Dome to see her perform on February 11, 2026. She kicked off her first North American tour this April.
More than a comedian, Watanabe is also an actress, model, fashion designer, entrepreneur, and advocate for plus-size women. Her streetwear brand, PUNYUS, which she launched in 2014, has forced Japan’s fashion industry to be more inclusive. To learn more about Watanabe, please visit her website.
