Clean comedian Nate Bargatze returning to Salt Lake City in 2025

SALT LAKE CITY — Nate Bargatze, a staple in the clean comedy genre, is returning to the Delta Center on Dec. 6, 2025, as part of his “Big Dumb Eyes” world tour.

Salt Lake City will be one of the final stops on Bargatze’s 2025 world tour, which was announced on Monday. The tour begins in April and includes stops in France, the United Kingdom and Norway, along with other international destinations.

Bargatze last performed in Utah in 2023 for a sold-out Delta Center crowd as part of his “The Be Funny Tour.” He’s best known for his clean comedy.

“I knew I would never be dirty. I’ve always been clean. It was just always what I was going to do,” the Tennessee native told the Deseret News in a 2023 interview. “Definitely, when I moved to New York and a lot of comics were dirty, I would do a lot of midnight shows that would be like ‘uncensored comedy.’ Being edgy … was like this big thing. But I always just knew I was going to do what I was going to do. I could never be dirty in front of my parents. Not that that’s the only thing stopping me. It just was never going to happen.”

This, of course, makes Bargatze and his family-friendly shows a big hit in the Beehive State.

“You heard, ‘If you’re clean, you do really great in Salt Lake City.’ The first time I’d go there, I’d go to the comedy club Wiseguys. Keith (Stubbs) over there, he would book you,” Bargatze told the Deseret News. “Every time I went, it’s like the next time was a little more crowded and then a little more crowded. And then it was slowly kind of going.”
