Legendary comedian Jon Stewart has joined Tanglewood’s 2026 Popular Artist Series,
further expanding the season’s exciting and varied lineup. The Emmy, Grammy, and
Peabody Award winner and Daily Show host will perform at the Tanglewood for the
first time on Saturday, June 20 at 7 p.m., presenting this summer’s only solo comedy
show in the Koussevitzky Music Shed. He will open the show performing on drums
with his band Church and State.

Jon Stewart is considered one of America’s top social and comedic voices. In 2024,
Stewart returned as host and executive producer of Comedy Central’s Emmy
Award-winning The Daily Show. Picking up right where he left off from his original
16 year run as host, Stewart continues to redefine and set the bar for political satire
in American culture. In 2021, Stewart launched The Problem with Jon Stewart which
ran for two seasons on AppleTV+. The Emmy-nominated series, which Stewart hosted
and executive produced, brought together people impacted by different parts of a
global problem to discuss how we come up with change. Stewart is also the host and
executive producer of The Weekly Show, a podcast featuring in-depth conversations
where Stewart and his special guests discuss the challenges, changes and ideas that
are shaping our world. In addition to his work both in front and behind the camera,

Stewart is also a dedicated social activist. His efforts have played an integral role
in the passing of legislation such as the PACT Act, which provides needed medical
coverage to veterans that were exposed to toxic burn pits, and the 9/11 Victim Compensation
Fund Bill, which benefitted thousands of first responders and their families. Stewartalso
works tirelessly on behalf of America’s wounded veterans through initiatives led by
organizations such as the Wounded Warrior Project and Team Rubicon.
