Hart's first visit to Syracuse was part of the record-breaking tour that made him the first comedian to sell out an NFL stadium.

Comedian Kevin Hart will perform at the Oncenter War Memorial Arena on March 11 during a stop on the “Irresponsible” tour.

Tickets for the stand-up show go on sale Friday at 10 a.m. on Ticketmaster and in the Oncenter box office, according to a release from Live Nation Entertainment.

University Union brought Hart to Syracuse University in November 2014 for a stand-up performance and screening of his film “The Wedding Ringer.” Hart also performed at the Oncenter in 2015 as part of his “Kevin Hart: What Now?” tour — the same tour that made him the first comedian to sell out an NFL stadium, selling more than 50,000 tickets.

Earlier this year, the comedian and actor added to his portfolio by writing his memoir, “I Can’t Make This Up: Life Lessons,” which debuted at No. 1 on The New York Times bestseller list.

Hart can be seen alongside Dwayne Johnson and Jack Black in the reboot film “Jumanji: Welcome to the Jungle,” which is set for release on Dec. 20.



The “Irresponsible” tour produced by Live Nation kicks off Dec. 31 in Orlando, Florida, with two non-Live Nation performances on Dec. 21 and Dec. 30. The tour makes stops in Dayton, Ohio and Portland, Maine before coming to Syracuse and finishes in Reading, Pennsylvania at the end of March.
