Comedian Jerry Seinfeld is finally coming to New Zealand, visiting Auckland at the end of his upcoming Australian tour.

"New Zealand and Australia may be far in miles but I feel very close to the people because of our mutual comedy connection," Seinfeld says.

"I couldn't be more excited about seeing everyone there."

Seinfeld is well-known for his self-titled sitcom, which was a worldwide hit and has won a number of Emmy, Golden Globe and People's Choice awards.

His live stand-up show will be at Vector Arena on Saturday, August 12 and tickets go on sale on Monday, 14 November.
