CLARKSVILLE, TN (CLARKSVILLE NOW) – Two big events are coming up at F&M Bank Arena in Clarksville in 2024: WWE’s NXT Vengeance Day and comedian Bert Kreischer. They will mark the new arena’s first wrestling show and first comedy event.

NXT Vengeance Day

WWE, the world’s premier professional wrestling organization, announced Tuesday that NXT Vengeance Day is coming to F&M Bank Arena on Sunday, Feb. 4. This is the first-ever NXT premium live event to take place in Tennessee.

Tickets for NXT Vengeance Day go on sale Dec. 8, at 10 a.m. via www.ticketmaster.com. Exclusive pre-sale opportunities are available now by visiting www.wwe.com/nxtdeadline-presale.

NXT Vengeance Day will feature the biggest Superstars from NXT in action, including NXT Champion lja Dragunov, NXT Women’s Champion Lyra Valkyria, NXT Tag Team Champions Andre Chase and Duke Hudson, Carmelo Hayes, Trick Williams, Roxanne Perez, Tiffany Stratton and more, according to a news release. NXT Vengeance Day will stream live on Peacock.

Bert Kreischer

Comedian, podcast host, actor and author Kreischer is extending his Tops Off World Tour to include Clarksville on Saturday, April 13, at F&M Bank Arena.

“Following an incredibly successful global stint throughout 2023, where Kreischer brought his shirtless antics everywhere from an impressive four sold-out shows at Mullett Arena in Tempe, Ariz., to a sold-out TD Garden in Boston, Kreischer insisted on keeping the party going,” a news release said.

Tickets will go on sale for the Clarksville show beginning Friday, Dec. 1, at 10 a.m.

Bert Kreischer’s career has evolved from being Rolling Stone’s 1997 “Number One Partier in the Nation,” to one of the top-grossing stand-up comics in the business, and most recently, star of a major motion picture. In March, Kreischer released his highly anticipated fifth stand-up special, Razzle Dazzle, which has charted in the Top 5 standup specials on Netflix, the release said. Kreischer starred in and produced the film, The Machine, which premiered in the spring of 2023, based on his stand-up set recounting his experience with Russian mobsters while on a booze-soaked college trip. The Machine has been in the Top 10 on Netflix since its release on Sept. 23.
