Gabriel “Fluffy” Iglesias Becomes First Comedian To Sell Out Dodger Stadium; Massive May Show Set To Become Netflix Special
deadline.comThe biggest draw of the massive 11-night Netflix Is a Joke festival which begins next month in Los Angeles is not Kevin Hart, not Dave Chappelle and not Pete Davidson, but Southern California’s own Gabriel “Fluffy” Iglesias, at least in terms of seats filled in one night.Iglesias has officially sold-out Dodger Stadium, the largest MLB stadium in the U.S., on May 7th as part of the festival.
Iglesias is the first comedian to perform at the storied venue and has now become the first comedian to sell it out. His performance will be taped for Iglesias’ third Netflix comedy special.
Dodger Stadium can hold 70,000 baseball fans, but the number of seats available for Iglesias’ show will likely be significantly less than that.
It’s still quite a feat. Kevin Hart is playing Crypto.com Arena as part of the fest. It holds 20,000. Dave Chappelle is doing four nights at the Hollywood Bowl, which has a capacity of 17,500 and, if he sold out all those dates, would put to 70,000 butts in seats.
