Box office The Nostradamus Kid grossed $242,800 at the box office in Australia. Ellis: It ended up opening in October when all the kids who might have otherwise gone to see it were studying for exams and so on. So it didn't quite break out.

Home media The Nostradamus Kid was released on Region 4 PAL DVD by Beyond Home Entertainment in 2010. The DVD includes no extra features.
