Profile

MC/ Host/ Television Presenter
Known (and loved) TV presenter and personality Sonia Gray has been a steady contributor to Kiwi screens for some 20 years now. Lotto’s second-longest serving presenter and one of New Zealand television’s best known local faces, Sonia has lent her hosting skills to a diverse range of local productions and features. She has been the co-host of TV One news programme Flipside, the roving reality show Ghosts, as well as game show Wheel of Fortune. Sonia also showed audiences a whole new side when she starred in Netflix’s The Royal Treatment… and again as a contestant on New Zealand’s instalment of Dancing with the Stars. An all-rounder and industry veteran, Sonia is the real deal: experienced, warm and socially aware, with speaking skills as versatile and robust as her portfolio. Sonia hosts with a confidence that comes only with years of experience – and it’s that warmth, insight and industry credibility that sees her take on diverse projects with consistent insight and grace. Sonia’s most recent project is a documentary with TVNZ focusing on neurodivergency.

The Wellington Gold Awards 2022Sonia was excellent to work with, professional, authentic, empathetic, adaptable, smart and her stage presence was suitably warm and inclusive which added greatly to the success of the Awards night. I would have no hesitation for recommending Sonia for future events.
