Comedian Dai Henwood's ticked plenty of boxes over his three decades in the business, but next May, he'll take on a new challenge and host the Best Foods Comedy Gala.
The event will take place from May 1 to May 2, and it represents a career-first for the Kiwi comedy legend.
Henwood says New Zealand's gone through some significant changes on the world stage, having moved from 'culturally cringe' to something meaningful.
"I'm someone who loves change and I've always loved change. So seeing how things evolve is awesome. Yet, it's so cool you have something like the gala - which in its essence has stayed the same, it is an intro to the Comedy Festival."
Tickets for the event are on sale - and if you order before December 18th, you go in the draw to win some prizes, including a signed copy of Dai鈥檚 book.
