Comedian. MC. Master of Timing.
Hi, I’m Andre King — corporate MC for hire in New Zealand, stand-up comedian, international performer, and a man once described as a “jolly white devil from New Zealand.” (True story. Translated from Cantonese. Probably meant kindly.)
If you’re looking for someone who can command a stage, keep a schedule on track, and still get a laugh between speeches, you’re in the right place. I’ve spent more than two decades hosting corporate events, performing stand-up comedy, and entertaining audiences in over 60 countries — from Windsor Castle to the South Pacific.
Whether you’re planning a black-tie awards night, a cruise ship show, or something entirely your own — I’ll bring the mic, the timing, and just enough charm to keep things rolling.
On Stage & On Point
Corporate MC & Event Host
From black-tie awards nights to multi-day leadership conferences, I bring structure, energy, and a warm professionalism to your event. Not too loud, not too stiff — just the right amount of charm and control. Hire Me as MC
Cruise Ship & International Entertainment
A regular on the high seas, I’ve kept cruise crowds laughing, clapping, and occasionally dancing, from Barcelona to Bora Bora, Singapore to Sydney. Whether it’s a black-tie gala on board or a late-night lounge set, I know how to work a room, whatever ocean it’s floating on. View Tour Dates
Stand-Up Comedy (On Request… or By Accident)
My comedy is clean, clever, and based on real stories, the kind you’d tell your mates if you could do accents and hold a mic without sweating. Great for corporate audiences, conference openers, or anyone needing a good laugh without the HR complaint. Watch Andre in Action
Voice Work & Media
Off stage, Andre also works behind the mic as a voice actor, lending his voice to commercials, animation, and narration projects for clients across New Zealand and overseas.
