Update: Sorry everyone, it looks like NIRVANNA THE BAND THE SHOW THE MOVIE will arrive on VOD and digital platforms one week later than we thought. The 3/17 release was posted today on Apple TV…
….but that date has now been removed. According to our sources, the new release date will be March 24th, 2026. We’ve updated our Streaming Calendar to reflect the change. If there are any other changes, we’ll be sure to post.
NEON is set to release their comedy NIRVANNA THE BAND THE SHOW THE MOVIE on VOD and digital platforms this week, arriving tomorrow, March 17th, 2026. The film world premiered at the 2025 SXSW Festival before launching in US theaters on February 13th, 2026.
Nirvanna the Band the Show the Movie is directed by Matt Johnson from a screenplay by Johnson and Jay McCarrol, and is based on Johnson and McCarrol’s 2007–2009 web series Nirvana the Band the Show, as well as its 2017–2018 television adaptation Nirvanna the Band the Show.
The film stars Johnson and McCarrol as fictionalized versions of themselves in a band called “Nirvanna the Band” as they attempt to book a gig at the Rivoli, a bar and restaurant in Toronto, despite the fact that they have never actually written or recorded a single song, nor taken any steps to contact the Rivoli’s management about booking. A new plan to play the Rivoli goes wrong and accidentally sends Matt and Jay back in time to the year 2008.
We’ve added the release date to our Streaming Calendar. Pre-order the film from Amazon below, and check out the official trailer.
