Jeff Dunham Is Down to His Last Three Vegas Shows of the Year
Jeff Dunham has only three performances left in Las Vegas for all of 2026. The ventriloquist and comedian behind some of the most-watched comedy specials in YouTube history returns to PH Live at Planet Hollywood on October 4, November 8, and December 6, each a Sunday evening. His “Artificial Intelligence” show runs 90 minutes and brings out the full lineup of characters fans show up to see. Jeff Dunham Las Vegas tickets start from $78 on Spotlight.
Five Characters, Zero Cue Cards, and Ninety Minutes of Crowd-Fed Comedy
The “Artificial Intelligence” show features Dunham’s five signature characters, each with a dedicated segment. Walter, the grumpy retiree, opens most sets with deadpan complaints about everything from modern technology to his wife. Peanut provides the chaotic energy, riffing on audience members in the front rows. Achmed the Dead Terrorist delivers punchlines that somehow still land after two decades of repetition. Jose Jalapeno on a Stick and Bubba J round out the cast.
What separates Dunham from other touring comedians is the format itself. Every character carries its own voice, timing, and personality. The show feels less like a stand-up set and more like a rotating cast of sitcom characters sharing a single stage. Dunham works without cue cards and adjusts material based on crowd reactions, which means no two performances at PH Live play out the same way.
A Rare Family-Friendly Comedy Night on the Strip
PH Live seats around 1,500 guests inside Planet Hollywood, and the sightlines hold up from every section. The show is rated for ages 6 and up, which makes it one of the few comedy options in Las Vegas where parents don’t need to arrange a babysitter. Most headliner comedy on the Strip carries 18+ or 21+ age restrictions, so Dunham’s all-ages format fills a gap that families traveling with kids actively search for.
If you’re building a trip around kid friendly shows in Vegas, Dunham fits alongside Tournament of Kings at Excalibur and Blue Man Group at Luxor as acts the whole family can watch together.
What This Means for Your Vegas Trip
All three remaining dates fall on Sundays, which works well for travelers wrapping up a long weekend. October, November, and December also overlap with several other strong comedy shows in Vegas, including Carrot Top at Luxor from $69, Comedy Cellar at Rio from $41, and Penn & Teller at Rio from $90. You could pair Dunham’s Sunday show with a Friday or Saturday night act and cover two completely different styles in one trip.
The scarcity is real. Dunham performs hundreds of arena dates per year on tour, but his Vegas residency at PH Live only gets a handful of nights annually. With just three left in 2026, waiting until the week of the show to decide is a gamble you don’t need to take.
Lock In Your Jeff Dunham Dates Before They’re Gone
Tickets for all three remaining 2026 dates start from $78 on Spotlight. Pick your seats using the interactive seating chart, compare standard and VIP options, and book before these final PH Live performances sell through.
