Chappelle’s company, Iron Table Holdings LLC, paid nearly $2 million for the property, according to property records.

We’re working to get information from Chappelle’s representatives and company.

According to the comedy club, the lineup for the event will house some of Wiley’s favorites and will “take it back to where it all started.”

“Wiley’s has been considered “HOME” to many and it truly is a family in itself,” the post said. “Please join us for our last show to celebrate 42 years of laughter and help us say goodbye to a Dayton Icon.”

Tickets go on sale Friday, August 9 at 10 a.m. and will be an online ticket sale only.

This is a developing story and we will continue providing updates.
