Nick Rado is a world-class clean stand-up comedian whose career continues to gain international momentum. He has just returned from Nashville, where he was personally flown over to film a 10-minute comedy special with Nate Bargatze’s Nateland Productions. Later this year, Larry the Cable Guy will release Nick’s new album on SiriusXM Comedy Roundup across North America.
Nick has opened for comedy giants including Nate Bargatze, Chelsea Handler, Russell Howard, Rob Brydon, and Aziz Ansari on their worldwide tours. A six-time winner of the Best Comedy MC award at the NZ Comedy Guild Awards and recipient of the Best Male Comedian award, Nick is one of the most in-demand performers and hosts in Australasia.
His comedy has taken him to the prestigious Just for Laughs Sydney showcase at the Sydney Opera House, and he became the first Kiwi to record a US special with Dry Bar Comedy, where his clips have been viewed millions of times across America and social media.
Nick’s albums Life from Jeff’s Garage and On-Trend have reached global audiences, with the latter hitting #4 on the iTunes comedy chart and tracks featured on SiriusXM’s Laugh USA and Pure Comedy.
Beyond the stage, Nick is a seasoned broadcaster, head writer for over 300 episodes of TV3’s award-winning 7 Days, and host of two award-winning podcasts (Socrates Walks into a Bar and Sporting Rumble), both Gold winners at the NZ Podcast Awards.
He has appeared on The Comedy Channel Australia, Fox Sports Australia’s Narrow World of Sports, Rhys Darby’s Netflix sitcom Short Poppies, and multiple New Zealand comedy galas. His short film Mission I’m Possible has been officially selected at international festivals in London, Houston, Palm Springs, and more.
With charm, wit, and razor-sharp timing, Nick Rado is a clean comedian at the top of his game—equally at home in theatres, corporate events, television, and radio.
