Comedian Jay Leno returns to Stambaugh Auditorium on Jan. 7, 2027, for a benefit performance.
The show is presented by The Muransky Companies, and all proceeds will benefit United Way of Youngstown and the Mahoning Valley and the work it does to support programs and services in the local community.
Leno hosted NBC's "The Tonight Show" from 1992 to 2009 and 2010 to 2014 after serving as a frequent guest host for Johnny Carson during his tenure. Leno, 76, continues to tour nationwide, and the car enthusiast hosts "Jay Leno's Garage" on YouTube.
He is a recipient of the Mark Twain Prize for American Humor and has a star on Hollywood's Walk of Fame.
Leno last played Stambaugh in 2024. He played Packard Music Hall in Warren in 2016 (and visited the National Packard Museum next door before the show), and he headlined Powers Auditorium before he started his "Tonight Show" run.
Tickets go on sale at 10 a.m. Friday through Ticketmaster.
