Jimmy Carr to Perform at the Paramount Theatre in May

If you like fast-paced, edgy one-liners then get ready to be happy. Jimmy Carr is going back on tour with his brand-new show ‘Jimmy Carr: Laughs Funny'. One of the biggest-selling global comedians, Jimmy Carr is bringing his tour to Denver, Colorado at Paramount Theatre on Wednesday, May 21, 2025 for one night only. Tickets go on presale beginning Wednesday, November 20 at 10AM local and general on sale starts Friday, November 22 at 10AM local.

Jimmy tells jokes, and jokes are like magnets.  Jokes attract people, but they can also repel.  Some people are repelled by Jimmy's dark brand of comedy. This show is not for them. But if it's the kind of thing you like, then this is the kind of thing you'll like.

At the latest count he has toured to forty-five different countries and his last tour, Terribly Funny, sold over 1.2 million tickets globally.
