ABOUT

New York Times bestselling author, Grammy and Emmy-award nominee, director, producer, and podcaster Nate Bargatze is one of the most talked-about and beloved performers in live entertainment today. He is currently the No. 1-earning comedian in the world, according to Pollstar, and Billboard recently announced that Bargatze set a new record for the biggest one-year gross by a comedy performer in history.

Bargatze’s comedy is both clean and relatable, as millions of viewers have seen during his 15 record-breaking appearances on “The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon.”

Most recently, he hosted the 77^th Primetime Emmy Awards on CBS, the highest-rated Emmy show in the last 4 years. 

In 2026, Bargatze debuts his new comedy game show, “The Greatest Average American,” premiering February 25 on ABC and Hulu. Co-created and executive produced by Bargatze and John Quinn (“The Price Is Right”), “TGAA” celebrates the power of being perfectly average. 

On the silver screen in 2026, Bargatze stars in the family-friendly comedy “The Breadwinner” for TriStar Pictures. He co-wrote and executive-produced the film, which co-stars Mandy Moore, Colin Jost, Will Forte, and Kumail Nanjiani, and is directed by Emmy winner Eric Appel.

In 2023, Bargatze broke the attendance record at Bridgestone Arena in Nashville. The following month, he also broke the record for tickets sold at the Delta Center in Salt Lake City — the highest number ever sold by a comedian at the venue. In 2024, he broke 20 total arena records. He also recently performed two sold-out shows at the Hollywood Bowl with Jerry Seinfeld, Jim Gaffigan, and Sebastian Maniscalco.

His comedy specials include “The Tennessee Kid” (2019), “The Greatest Average American” (2021), “Nate Bargatze: Hello World” (2023), and “Your Friend, Nate Bargatze” (2024), which continues to be one of the most-watched stand-up specials on Netflix in 2025.
