Join award-winning comedian Chris Parker on tour for a night of his greatest hits.

A rising star of the New Zealand comedy scene, Chris has been seen on TV on 7 Days, Jono and Ben, Funny Girls and Have You Been Paying Attention as well as making a name for himself with his Instagram presence and as a fan favourite (and winner) on TV2's Celebrity Treasure Island.

With his NZ International Comedy Festival Shows being a yearly sell-out sensation, Chris is hitting the road this winter to give you his best material from over the years, as well as something new. It's basically Now That's What I Call Chris Parker, Vol.1.
