Aotearoa’s fan-favourite comedian returns to New Zealand in 2026 with even more understated punchlines and her signature deadpan delivery in the brand-new show, Fatty On a Yacht.

Ever felt like you don't belong? Like everyone else got the memo — and you turned up in the wrong outfit, on the wrong day, on the wrong yacht?

Carlson's new show, Fatty On a Yacht, is for anyone who's ever tried to squeeze into a space — physical or social — and thought, "This can't be right”.

It's about not fitting in, standing out, and laughing about it anyway.

Carlson will kick off her Fatty On a Yacht tour at the newly opened BNZ Theatre in Hamilton on December 4 and Auckland’s Te Paepae Theatre at the NZICC on December 5, then continue throughout December, heading to Dunedin, Christchurch, Wellington, before finishing in Tauranga on December 17.

Tickets go on sale to the public on Friday 13 March at 12pm local time.

Aussie legend Courtney Barnett returns to Aotearoa! 💚⁠

The Grammy-nominated singer-songwriter will bring her live show to Kirikiriroa on Wednesday 18th November, celebrating her newly released fourth studio album 'Creature of Habit’.⁠

Tickets will be available to purchase by the General Public on Friday April 17 at 12pm local time.

About the artist:

Courtney makes returns to Aotearoa in the wake of extensive UK and North American dates. Known for a performance that’s part intimate storytelling, part indie rock, with bursts of raw grunge-like energy, Courtney Barnett live is genuine and authentic. A signature blend of moody guitar, witty, anecdotal lyrics and her laconic talk-singing have cemented her as “one of the most distinctive voices in indie music” (The Mancunion).

Released in March, Creature of Habit is the highly anticipated new album from the indie trailblazer. It’s a bold, emotionally resonant record that explores the central question: how to get out of your own way so you can truly feel your life.

Written in the wake of a relocation from Australia to Los Angeles and the closure of her long-running label Milk! Records, Barnett was grappling with changes that put the future of both her life and career in question. Rather than internalizing those feelings, she decided to bring all this swirling confusion directly into the recording process. With singles ‘Stay in Your Lane’, and ‘Site Unseen (feat. Waxahatchee)’ setting the tone, the album marks a decisive new chapter in Courtney Barnett’s musical evolution.

Tickets on sale midday 17 April.
