Nicolas Nadeau (born September 30, 1997) is a Canadian competitive figure skater. He is the 2016 World Junior silver medalist and the 2015 Canadian national junior champion.

Nadeau was born on September 30, 1997 in Montreal, Quebec. He has three older sisters – Tania, Pamela, and Mélissa. He enjoys skiing in addition to figure skating.

Nadeau began skating in 2003. He is coached by Yvan Desjardins since 2011 or earlier. In 2011, he named Kurt Browning and Shawn Sawyer as his figure skating idols.

Competing on the junior level, Nadeau placed 6th at the 2013 Canadian Championships and 4th in 2014.

Nadeau made his international debut in the 2014–15 season, being selected to compete on the ISU Junior Grand Prix (JGP) series. He placed 5th at his first JGP event, in Aichi, Japan, and 10th in Zagreb, Croatia. He became the national junior champion at the 2015 Canadian Championships in Kingston, Ontario. This earned him a berth to the 2015 World Junior Championships in Tallinn, Estonia but he missed qualifying for the free skate by one spot, having placed 25th in the short program.

In 2015–16, Nadeau started his season at the JGP in Riga, Latvia; he finished 5th after placing second in the short program and 7th in the free skate. He won the silver medal at his second JGP event, in Zagreb, Croatia, finishing 0.38 points behind the gold medalist, Alexander Samarin.
