Special Event: Ismo
Special Event: Ismo
ISMO has been called “the most insightful comic in Finland.” As a recent resident in the United States, he continues to be the ultimate observer and master of word-play. His writing and uniquely hilarious delivery makes quick-fans out of people of all cultures. Ismo’s undeniable ability to make people see familiar cultural things in an entirely new way has the world unified in laughter. In 2024 Ismo will continue his WATCH YOUR LANGUAGE TOUR, expanding across the U.S., Europe, Canada, Australia and beyond.
ISMO was the first Finnish comedian to perform on CONAN and the clip of his performance has become one of the most viewed late-night sets with over 115 million views! He also made his debut appearance on The Late Late Show with James Corden, which brought an overwhelming response and new level of success. His personal social media has seen astronomical growth and resulted in sold-out performances in clubs and theaters internationally.
ISMO has attracted big fans such as Gabriel Iglesias who invited ISMO to open for his groundbreaking special at Dodger Stadium in front of 60,000 fans and later in 2023 asked ISMO to open for him at the 02 Arena in London. ISMO went on to sell-out his own European tour, adding a 2nd show in each city with plans for a larger-scale return in Fall of 2024.

ISMO made his US debut in 2014 at the Laugh Factory in Hollywood where he won the title of “The Funniest Person in the World.” In 2016, he moved to Los Angeles and performs regularly at the Laugh Factory, the Comedy and Magic Club, the Melrose Improv and the Ice House.
