05/04/2026
Television personality, author, and famed foodist Alton Brown announced today his new live concept show, An Evening of Alton Brown, an intimate theatrical experience that will bring audiences closer than ever to the man behind some of the most beloved culinary shows of all time.

Fans in Grand Rapids, MI will have the opportunity to experience An Evening of Alton Brown when it comes to DeVos Performance Hall on October 19 for one performance at 7:30PM.

Local presale available now. Tickets go on sale to the public on Friday, May 8 at 10AM at DeVosPerformanceHall.com.

Although he’s keeping the details under wraps, Brown has said that with An Evening of Alton Brownhe’s “stirring up some twists on his greatest hits,” and “spicing things up with new demonstrations, music, and slightly scaled-down mayhem.” No matter what, An Evening of Alton Brown will present Brown as you’ve never seen him — unless, of course, you’ve been invited to his house.

Best known for creating and hosting groundbreaking television such as Good Eats, Iron Chef America, Cutthroat Kitchen, and Food Network Star, Brown has also built one of the most successful culinary touring franchises ever, performing live in more than 300 cities for well over half a million fans. With An Evening of Alton Brown, he strips away the spectacle in favor of connection, spontaneity, and storytelling, delivering a show that is equal parts humor, science, food, and heart.

About Alton Brown
Alton Brown was directing TV commercials when he got the crazy idea to go to culinary school and reinvent the cooking show. The result was Good Eats, an irreverent, science-forward program that kept Brown gainfully employed for over twenty years. Along the way he hosted iconic programs like Iron Chef America, Food Network Star, and Cutthroat Kitchen. Brown’s live culinary variety shows have toured to sold-out crowds across the country since 2013, and his tenth book, a collection of essays and ruminations, Food for Thought, was a New York Times best seller. Brown is reinventing food content yet again by recently launching a new YouTube series: Alton Brown Cooks Food. He lives in Atlanta with his wife, the designer Elizabeth Ingram and a trio of nefarious canines.
