Award-winning television personality, New York Times best-selling author, podcaster, and comedian Jonathan Van Ness will bring their highly anticipated new live show, Hot & Healed, to Ottawa for one night only on October 22, 2026 at Meridian Theatres at Centrepointe. 

Fresh off two globally successful comedy tours that sold out theaters in over 40 cities worldwide, Jonathan returns to the stage with a brand-new show that is unfiltered, wildly entertaining, and joyfully unapologetic. Hot & Healed promises an evening of laughter, personal storytelling, and the signature warmth and charisma that have made Jonathan a beloved cultural force.

Best known for their role as the hair guru and self-care advocate on the Emmy Award-winning Netflix series Queer Eye, Jonathan Van Ness has built a devoted global fanbase through their work across television, publishing, podcasting, and advocacy. Their hit podcast, Getting Curious with Jonathan Van Ness, continues to captivate listeners with its thoughtful, humorous exploration of a wide range of topics.

A three-time New York Times best-selling author, Jonathan’s memoir Over the Top: A Raw Journey to Self-Love and essay collection Love That Story: Observations From a Gorgeously Queer Life have resonated deeply with readers, further cementing their voice as one of authenticity, vulnerability, and empowerment.

As one of today’s most visible nonbinary media personalities, Jonathan uses their platform to advocate for LGBTQ+ rights, HIV awareness, and social justice causes, while continuing to redefine what modern stardom looks like.

With Hot & Healed, audiences can expect a one-of-a-kind live experience that blends stand-up comedy, candid conversation, and heartfelt moments—showcasing sides of Jonathan that fans have never seen before. Their unique ability to connect, uplift, and entertain makes this tour one of the most anticipated live comedy events of the year.
