Bill Nye Tickets

Scientist, Netflix star, author, comedian and inventor, BILL NYE - the Science Guy – will bring his live show to Australia for the very first time in October. 

Fresh from filming series two of his global world-wide smash on Netflix Bill Nye Saves The World, BILL NYE LIVE IN AUSTRALIA heads to Sydney Opera House on October 8, and Melbourne’s Hamer Hall on October 10, for two exclusive shows. 

Tickets for both shows go on sale at midday next Thursday, August 10. 

Nye’s very first time in Australia. Using the trademark earnest, intellectual charm and humour that has kept him a household name for the last 30 years, Nye’s live show uses footage, photos and experiments to give audiences the low down on the cosmos, evolution and how we fit into it - and you won’t need a doctorate to understand it.

Bill Nye is a man with a mission: to help foster a scientifically literate society, to help people everywhere understand and appreciate the science that makes our world work. Making science entertaining and accessible is something Bill has been doing most of his life.

After leaving University with a degree in Mechanical Engineering in 1977, Bill packed up and moved to Seattle to take up a job with Boeing as an engineer. It was in Seattle that Bill began to combine his love of science with his flair for comedy, when he won the Steve Martin look-alike contest and developed dual careers as an engineer by day and a stand-up comic by night. After leaving his engineering day job, Bill made the transition to a comedy writer and performer on Seattle’s homegrown ensemble comedy show “Almost Live” in 1986. This is where “Bill Nye the Science Guy®” was born. 

While working on the show, Bill won seven Emmy Awards for writing, performing, and producing. The show won 18 Emmys in five years. In between creating the shows, he wrote five children’s books about science and is currently writing another on space exploration.
