Before stand-up, Fady worked corporate roles in Germany. So he knows the room, knows the line, and knows exactly how close to it he can get before HR wakes up.

Fady Kassab is a Sydney-based corporate comedian and MC who creates events people actually remember, from comedy festivals to conferences, awards nights and national roadshows.
Before stand-up he led creative services for Experian’s EMEA region from Munich, and later presented and moderated SBS Radio’s Arabic program. So he understands stakeholders, run sheets and brand guidelines, and knows exactly how far a joke can go in a room full of executives.
Clients book him in three ways: as a comedian for a tailored headline set, as an MC to host the whole event, or as a moderator to run panels and Q&As in English and Arabic.
AFG had the good fortune of engaging Fady Kassab to tour on a five-city roadshow of our mortgage broker network. Fady worked with audiences across the country, tailoring his material for the local crowd and resonating from state to state. Fady’s comedy is feel good and joyous, delivered with a disarming cheeky grin that pulls the crowd in.
His material cuts across a diverse multicultural audience. He is smart and quick enough to riff off the conference presenters and material that precedes him, in a manner that helps everyone look great. But most of all, Fady is just really funny and puts everyone in a great mood.
