Comedian Gabriel Iglesias Announces El Paso Performance

If there was any doubt that El Paso loves Gabriel "Fluffy" Iglesias, his visit to Taco Palenque this past February erased it completely.

You might remember that hundreds of El Pasoans lined up outside Taco Palenque's newest location on Gateway East for a chance to meet the comedy superstar in person. Fans waited for hours, snapped selfies, shared laughs, and enjoyed the restaurant's limited-time Fluffy Combo as the comedian greeted supporters throughout the afternoon.

Now, El Paso is getting another chance to see him, this time he’ll be jumping on stage to bring his 1976 tour to the Plaza theater.

The announcement comes as Iglesias continues one of the most successful comedy careers in the world. With more than 2 billion YouTube views, over 34 million social media followers, multiple Netflix specials, and sold-out performances at iconic venues including Madison Square Garden, Dodger Stadium, and the Sydney Opera House, Fluffy remains one of the biggest names in comedy.

And if his recent Taco Palenque visit proved anything, it's that El Paso is more than ready to welcome him back.
