Jeff Dunham's Artificial Intelligence Tour Hits the Road in 2026

Jeff Dunham has spent more than three decades turning ventriloquism into a stadium-filling phenomenon. With over 400 million YouTube views, multiple Comedy Central specials, and sold-out arena tours around the globe, Dunham is far and away the most successful ventriloquist in entertainment history. His cast of characters — the curmudgeonly Walter, the redneck Bubba J, the hyperactive Peanut, and the infamous Achmed the Dead Terrorist — have become comedy icons in their own right. The Artificial Intelligence tour marks Dunham's latest chapter, blending classic routines with topical material and introducing a brand-new character to the roster.

The Jacksonville, Oregon stop on the tour takes Dunham out of the arenas and into one of the most beautiful outdoor venues in the country. Britt Pavilion sits on the Britt Gardens estate in the heart of Jacksonville's historic district, surrounded by towering ponderosa pines and rolling hillsides. The venue has hosted everyone from Willie Nelson to the Oregon Shakespeare Festival, and its intimate open-air setting — roughly 2,200 seats under a canopy of stars — gives audiences a completely different experience from the typical arena show. For Dunham fans, this is a rare chance to see one of comedy's biggest acts in a setting that feels personal and relaxed.

Jacksonville itself is worth the trip. The entire downtown is a National Historic Landmark District, lined with Gold Rush-era buildings that now house wine tasting rooms, galleries, and farm-to-table restaurants. The town sits just minutes from Ashland and the Rogue Valley wine country, making a Jeff Dunham show at Britt an ideal anchor for a Southern Oregon summer getaway.

The Britt Festival's 2026 summer season has expanded its comedy and live entertainment programming, with Dunham's July 26 headlining appearance standing out as one of the marquee nights. Gates typically open well before showtime, and many fans arrive early to enjoy picnic dinners on the lawn — a Britt tradition that makes the pre-show experience almost as memorable as the performance itself.
