'Hoani Hotene is a charming ray of sunshine full of upbeat, sometimes silly, positivity' (Chortle.co.uk). Hoani Hotene is in Edinburgh with an ABBA reference and a dream. All the way from Aotearoa (NZ) Hoani has a chill style but in a way that's crack up. You'll find yourself with another favourite Kiwi comic. Winner of heaps of awards (in NZ) and even been on TV (in NZ too, but still cool), catch one of NZ's fastest rising comics this year. Winner: Billy T Award 2025 (NZ International Comedy Festival).

About Hoani Hotene

Hoani Hotene is a Kiwi comedian known for a smart but casual style, winner of the Billy T Award at the NZ International Comedy Festival and the Breakthrough Act award at the NZ Comedy Guild, both in the same year. Having travelled through New Zealand, Australia and Edinburgh making people laugh, he arrives at Hoot 5 for this solo stand-up show. The premise: Hoani is in Melbourne to make money, and to do that he's got to be funny.

Why see this show?

A smart, casual solo hour from a Kiwi comedian whose recent award wins mark him out as a genuine rising talent. Hoani Hotene's track record across New Zealand, Australia and Edinburgh makes this an easy recommendation for stand-up fans.
