Canadian culinary legend turned TV personality, Matty Matheson is coming to Australia and New Zealand for six intimate shows.

Be prepared for a night of unedited spoken word conversation with the big man himself giving insight into his life, career and a sneak peek into his new show. Sharing the highs and lows of his life, Matheson will meet with his audience for a no holds back conversation and Q&A.

Returning to Australia, Matty Matheson says “I love flying back in time to visit my favourite place in the whole world, Australia, you rock dog”

Matheson has transformed from early New Brunswick beginnings to the newly appointed face of the TV chef. From his two highly successful TV shows, Dead Set On Life and Suppertime, Matheson’s skill set and charisma have propelled him to internet superstardom with a dedicated social media following. Having featured on Jimmy Kimmel Live, The Seth Meyers Show, The New York Times, GQ , Rachel Ray, The Guardian, Forbes and Bon Appetit it’s safe to say Matheson is known as much for his delicious food as he is for his larger than life personality.

Adding another hat to his already stellar career, in late 2018 Matheson became a NY-Times best-selling author with his book Matty Matheson: A Cookbook. The book touches on family recipes, early inspirations and current day favourites all while sharing stories that are equal parts heart-warming and inappropriate. Going strong, Matty has signed on for a second cookbook to be released in late 2020. SHOW NAME will be the live intermission between the encore cookbook.

Every detail of this tour will be intrinsically Matheson, even the music will be controlled by his own playlist to set the tone for the evening. With a slew of followers around Australia, Matheson has listened to his audience demands by setting tours from Perth to Wellington.

Tickets go on sale 9:00 am Tuesday 21 May (local time).
