Global Touring Agent Nikos Kazoleas Joins Creative Artists Agency In London

Nikos Kazoleas has joined leading entertainment and sports agency Creative Artists Agency (CAA) as an agent in the Global Touring division. Kazoleas will be based in CAA’s London office.

Kazoleas joins from UTA, where he was a music agent for more than a decade, working with artists including Sombr, Chezile, GAYLE, Rebecca Black, Trixie Mattel, BANKS, and Joshua Bassett, and more.

CAA’s Global Touring division played a central role in many of 2025’s most successful and highest-grossing tours, overseeing negotiations, bookings, and worldwide tour coordination.

Among the year’s standout achievements was The Weeknd’s “After Hours Til Dawn Tour,” which became the highest-grossing R&B tour of all time, surpassing $1 billion in revenue and selling more than seven million tickets.

Another major highlight was Post Malone’s “The Big Ass Stadium Tour” with Jelly Roll, which sold more than 1.37 million tickets and generated nearly $200 million in gross revenue.

Several stadium dates on the Live Nation produced tour drew extraordinary crowds, like the May 31, 2025 performance at Gillette Stadium in Foxborough, MA, which moved 51,782 tickets at a $10,819,616 gross, or the May 24, 2025 concert at Citizens Bank Park Philadelphia, PA, also sold out at 42,222 ticket and a $7,237,460 gross, according to the box office reports submitted to Pollstar.

Both men already announced part two of this successful tour, which will feature stops at college football stadiums across the United States, April through July, including Donald W. Reynolds Razorback Stadium in Fayetteville, Arkansas; Jack Trice Stadium in Ames, Iowa; Sun Bowl Stadium in El Paso, Texas, and more.

Other bestsellers for CAA in 2026 include System of a Down, who are “selling out stadium dates across Europe,” according to the press release announcing Kazoleas’s appointment.

CAA’s Global Touring division also secured major festival headlining appearances for its artists around the world, including Sabrina Carpenter, Gracie Abrams, and Noah Kahan at British Summer Time Hyde Park; Shawn Mendes at Lollapalooza in both Brazil and India; and Charli xcx, alongside Sabrina Carpenter, at Primavera Sound in Spain and Portugal, among many others.

In addition, the division continues to build and expand the careers of breakout artists including Babymetal, Conan Gray, Mau P, Olivia Dean, Bad Omens, Tate McRae, and Young Miko, among others.

Mike Greek, Co-Head of CAA’s London office, commented, “Nikos is a fantastic addition to our team, with a strong track record and deep relationships across the live business. As touring continues to expand, bringing him into our Global Touring department strengthens our ability to create meaningful opportunities and deliver exceptional results for our artists worldwide.”
