Jimmy O Yang is bringing his uproarious stand-up comedy to Hong Kong for a five-show extravaganza at the Hong Kong Coliseum from June 13 to 16, 2025. Originally slated for just two nights, overwhelming demand brought the addition of three more performances, including a matinee. Tickets flew off the shelves, leading to a final release for June 14, with exclusive early access for fans on his email list. Even then, scoring a ticket to Jimmy’s shows was no small feat — but if you managed to snag one, it’s time to get ready. From navigating your way to the venue to picking the perfect place to stay (and what to bring along), our ultimate guide to Jimmy O Yang shows in Hong Kong has everything you need to know.
Renowned for his razor-sharp wit and relatable humour, Jimmy’s comedy delves into cultural quirks, Asian-Aerican identity, and immigrant experiences — all delivered with his trademark charm. One of his biggest inspirations? Hong Kong’s own comedy legend, Dayo Wong. Paying homage to his roots, Jimmy will spice up his typically English-language set with material tailored for the Hong Kong crowd, even sprinkling in some Cantonese for good measure. Read on for all the details of Jimmy O Yang’s shows in Hong Kong.
