Jo Koy Live

Jo Koy’s uniquely relatable comedy pulls inspiration from his colourful family that has reached all kinds of people and has translated into sold-out arenas around the world. He continues to be one of the top 10 grossing stand-up comedians each year according to Pollstar and Billboard. Today, he continues selling out and breaking sales records at some of the most prestigious venues around the world.

In 2022, Koy kicked off his Funny Is Funny World Tour by selling-out the Climate Pledge Arena (over 14,000 tickets) in his hometown of Seattle and ended the tour with a sold-out show at Tacoma Dome (over 19,000 tickets). In 2017, Koy broke a record for the most tickets sold by a single artist at 23,000 tickets and 11 sold-out shows at The Neal S. Blaisdell Concert Hall in Honolulu. In response, the mayor’s office in Honolulu proclaimed November 24th as “Jo Koy Day.”

Koy starred in the 2022 Universal Picture comedy "Easter Sunday," the film takes place around a struggling single father that returns to his hometown of Daly City, CA to survive a chaotic Easter with his family. The film is a love letter to his Filipino roots and is loosely based on Jo Koy's life experiences and stand-up comedy. "Easter Sunday" was produced by Steven Spielberg’s production company Amblin Partners and is the first motion picture film to feature an all-Filipino cast and be produced by a major studio. In honour of the film, Daly City gave Jo the Keys To The City and declared July 22nd “Jo Koy Day.” In 2023, Koy appeared in Disney’s "Haunted Mansion" and voiced characters in Netflix’s animated films, "Monkey King" and "Leo." In 2024, he was most recently heard voicing the character Monkey King in the Paramount+ film, "The Tiger’s Apprentice." He’s also appeared in Netflix’s "Mr. Iglesias" and Comedy Central’s "Awkwafina Is Nora from Queens." He’ll next been heard voicing Datu in the upcoming Dreamworks Animation film, "Forgotten Island" in theaters September 25th, 2026.

In 2023, Koy inked a two-special deal with Netflix, with the first special released in 2024. "Jo Koy: Live From Brooklyn," filmed at the historic King’s Theatre, premiered globally on June 4 and was the #6 most viewed special that year, with over 240 million minutes watched. The second special was recently filmed in Stockton, CA, set to release later this year. His other Netflix stand-up specials include "Live From The Los Angeles Forum," "Comin’ In Hot" and "Live From Seattle." Overall, Koy has had seven highly rated and successful specials on Comedy Central and Netflix. In June 2020, the comedian released his first variety special, "Jo Koy: In His Elements" on Netflix in which Koy brings the laughs and beats to Manila, spotlighting local culture in a one-of-a-kind show featuring Filipino-American comedians, DJs and B-boys.

On March 21st, 2026, Koy alongside Gabriel “Fluffy” Iglesias became the first to headline a sold-out comedy show at SoFi Stadium in Los Angeles for their One Night Only! show. Koy continues to push for representation in Hollywood and shine a light on Filipino talent. Last year Koy joined "Nurse Unseen," a documentary from Emmy-winning director Michele Josue, as an executive producer. The film explores the little-known history and humanity of the unsung Filipino nurses who risked their lives on the frontlines of the COVID-19 pandemic while facing a resurgence of anti-Asian hate in the streets. 

In recognition of his impact on Hollywood and comedy, Koy was honoured with a hand and footprint ceremony at the TCL Chinese Theatre on February 11, 2026, joining an elite group of distinguished entertainers. In 2027, he will be further recognized with a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame, honouring his lasting contributions to the entertainment industry.
