D.L. Hughley and Don Lemon are going on the road for a round of “unfiltered” comedy and conversation.
The comedian and the journalist announced Thursday they are teaming up for a national DL + DL “Anything Goes Tour.”
Lemon shared details on Instagram, and said the tour will be “unfiltered and uncensored.”
A press release warned “expect the unexpected” as the former CNN anchor and The Original Kings of Comedy star explore everything from social issues, to race, pop culture, and current events.

The tour kicks off on April 3. So far, there are shows scheduled in four cities –Raleigh, North Carolina; Cleveland, Ohio; Tysons, Virginia; and Boston, Massachusetts. Tickets go on sale Friday, Feb. 27, according to Lemon’s website.
Fans in other cities replied to his social media post, asking for more shows to be added.
Lemon anchored the CNN primetime program, Don Lemon Tonight, as well as CNN This Morning. The Emmy Award-winning journalist currently runs a digital media empire and hosts The Don Lemon Show on YouTube.
His profile has continued to rise since he was arrested for following anti-ICE demonstrators into the Cities Church in St. Paul, Minnesota and reporting about it live on Jan. 18.
Lemon was arraigned in Minnesota federal court earlier this month and pleaded not guilty. He said the charges against him are “baseless” and trumped up by the Trump administration.
Since his arrest, he’s gone on late-night TV, received a standing ovation at a pre-Grammy party, and is set to receive a 2026 Truth Award from Los Angeles activists for his “unwavering dedication to journalism that informs, challenges, and inspires change.”
Hughley led the cast and produced his namesake network series, The Hughley’s. He also hosted a talk show on Comedy Central titled Weekends at the DL, as well as a self-titled TV One late-night show and podcast.
The actor and comedian’s 11th stand-up special, DL Hughley: Contrarian, is currently streaming on Netflix.
