Critical Role Announces 2027 Live Shows for "The Nerdy Best Friends Tour" – Europe-Exclusive Show at Avicii Arena

Critical Role, the media company behind the popular "actual play" series of the same name, today announced the schedule for the 2027 live shows of "The Nerdy Best Friends Tour," bringing three distinct adventures to three venues across North America and Europe in 2027. Sam Riegel, Brennan Lee Mulligan, and Matthew Mercer will take turns serving as Game Master during the tour.

On November 9, "Bells Hells" will take the stage at Avicii Arena in Stockholm for a *Daggerheart* adventure set in Exandria, with Matthew Mercer as Game Master—the only live show taking place in Europe!

What began as a simple game among friends at home has grown into a global community centered around Critical Role. "The Nerdy Best Friends Tour" takes this shared experience on the road, inviting both "Critters" (Critical Role’s fanbase) and newcomers to watch the cast roleplay LIVE! Each show features a unique party, a specific Game Master, and a standalone story, making it easy to jump in without having followed every campaign. Whether you are reuniting with familiar characters or meeting them for the first time, a new adventure awaits at every stop!

"With a new Game Master and new characters at every stop, fans in each city get to experience a new side of Critical Role," says Brittany Walloch-Key, Head of Events at Critical Role. "We can't wait to reunite with our nerdy best friends—both around the table and in the audience!"

Tickets go on sale Friday, November 6, at 4:00 PM.

About Critical Role

Critical Role is one of the fastest-growing independent media companies in the world. It began as a role-playing game among friends and has evolved into a new kind of organization dedicated to storytelling, community, and imagination. As Critical Role continues to expand the unique universe it has created—featuring complex narratives in an ever-evolving world—the company is also creating more ways for fans to experience the brand. These include *New York Times* bestselling fiction and non-fiction books, comic books, graphic novels, collectibles, board games and RPGs, podcasts, live events, and animated series—such as the critically acclaimed *The Legend of Vox Machina* and the Emmy Award-winning *The Mighty Nein*, both streaming exclusively on Prime Video.

Critical Role has also launched two major initiatives: an official 501(c)(3) non-profit organization, the Critical Role Foundation (CRF), and a board game publishing division, Darrington Press. With a core cast of award-winning, seasoned voice actors who are also the company’s co-founders—including Matthew Mercer, Ashley Johnson, Marisha Ray, Taliesin Jaffe, Travis Willingham, Sam Riegel, Laura Bailey, and Liam O’Brien—Critical Role strives to make its stories, characters, and community accessible to everyone.

Information regarding the livestream or Video on Demand (VOD) access, accessibility accommodations, and merchandise will be shared closer to each show via Critical Role’s official channels.
