A scheduling mystery has emerged around comedian Bert Kreischer’s reported September 28 appearance at Matthew Knight Arena in Eugene, Oregon.
The University of Oregon’s official Matthew Knight Arena schedule continues to list Bert Kreischer: Permission to Party for Sunday, September 28, at 7 p.m.
However, the current Matthew Knight Arena event calendar does not include Kreischer’s show among its upcoming events. The venue’s current listings instead begin with October events, including Oregon women’s volleyball and Billy Strings.
University of Oregon Schedule Still Lists the Show
The University of Oregon Athletics website previously announced Kreischer’s Permission to Party tour in March 2025 and identified Matthew Knight Arena as the Eugene venue for the September 28 performance. The announcement described the tour as a 37-date comedy run beginning in September 2025.
The university’s Matthew Knight Arena schedule still displays the event as a home listing at 7 p.m. on September 28, making the university page an important part of the current scheduling picture.
Current Arena Listings Do Not Show Kreischer
The discrepancy becomes notable when compared with other current event listings.
Matthew Knight Arena’s current event page lists October 2, October 4 and October 6 events, but does not show the September 28 comedy performance.
Ticketmaster’s current Matthew Knight Arena listings also show October events, including Oregon volleyball and Billy Strings, without a September 28 Bert Kreischer listing.
What the Conflicting Information Means
The available listings do not establish that Kreischer’s Eugene show has been canceled. Instead, they show that the University of Oregon’s official athletics schedule and several current event listings are not synchronized.
Because the university schedule continues to identify the September 28 performance, while current venue and ticket listings omit it, prospective attendees should rely on an updated official event confirmation before treating the performance as definitely scheduled.
Matthew Knight Arena’s Upcoming Schedule
Matthew Knight Arena is located at 1390 Villard Street in Eugene and serves as a major venue for University of Oregon athletics and touring entertainment.
The arena’s currently listed schedule includes Oregon women’s volleyball against Purdue on October 2, Oregon women’s volleyball against Illinois on October 4, and Billy Strings on October 6.
The conflicting September 28 listing therefore stands out as a scheduling issue worth watching as the date approaches.
