On October 5th, the Dubai Comedy Festival welcomes American comedian, podcaster, and actor Akash Singh to Dubai Opera for an evening of non-stop belly laughs. Having first made his mark with appearances on MTV's Guy Code and Wild'n Out, Netflix's Brown Nation, and HBO's The Leftovers, Akash later shifted his focus from TV to podcasting. Together with his good friend and fellow funny man Andrew Schulz, Akaash co-created the immensely popular podcast 'Flagrant,' which has amassed millions of listeners. Continuing his winning streak, Akash is set to give Dubai fans a dose of giggles with his unique takes, redefining stand-up on his own terms.

Making his Dubai Comedy Festival debut, LA-based comedian and musician Morgan Jay is ready to light up the Dubai Opera stage on October 6th with his uniquely hilarious, genre-bending performance. You might know him from appearances on MTV's Wild 'N Out, NBC, Comedy Central, or from his impressive social media following, though many fans simply recognize him as the real-life version of the guy from Ratatouille. A trained actor and seasoned performer, Morgan's Brazilian-Italian charm sets the stage for an unforgettable evening packed with guest interactions, playful banter, and plenty of singing (don't worry, the autotune's very forgiving).

Irish comedian, writer, and actress Joanne McNally most certainly has the gift of the gab, and she's bringing it back to Dubai this October for not one but two solo shows at Dubai Opera. A primetime TV favorite, she's brought the laughs on Taskmaster, The Jonathan Ross Show, The Big Fat Quiz of Everything, and plenty more. Joanne last stormed the Dubai Comedy Festival stage in 2023 with Vogue Williams in their sell-out show My Therapist Ghosted Me, offering a hilarious deep dive into dating disasters, social media stress, and everything in between. This time, she's flying solo with all-new material, still single, still chaotic, and delivering her unfiltered take on life.

Comedy fans can expect even more hilarity, as the annual festival has just added a major name to its already stacked lineup. Acclaimed Palestinian-American comedian and Netflix sensation Mo Amer will be making his much-anticipated return to the festival with exclusive back-to-back shows at Dubai Opera on October 9th and October 10th. Celebrated for his quick wit, compelling narratives, and candid take on fame, family, and identity, Mo Amer is set to bring back his much-loved humor to Dubai once again. Amer&rsquo;s critically lauded show MO was named one of the best of 2022 by The New York Times and NY Magazine, earning a Gotham Award, Peabody, AFI Honors, and a Television Academy Honor. Season 2 of the semi-autobiographical series dropped on Netflix on January 30th to critical acclaim, making this Dubai appearance a timely treat for fans eager to catch him. The crowds are loving Mo Amer, and the 2nd show on October 9th is already sold out! But fear not, because you've still got 3 more slots to pick from, so don't wait around; grab your tickets before they're gone!

&nbsp;
Dubbed the world&rsquo;s first &ldquo;de-motivational speaker,&rdquo; Self-help Singh is the hilariously unfiltered alter ego of Boomgaard&mdash;blending stand-up, satire, and mock self-help in a uniquely absurd stage experience. With millions of fans online and sold-out shows from New York to London, this is your chance to witness the bad advice guru in all his glory. Expect wildly funny wisdom, chaotic life lessons, and just enough spiritual nonsense to (not) change your life.

&nbsp;
Paul makes fun of the French, and they love it. Or they tell him to f*** off back to England! After 3 sell-out bilingual world tours, Paul shares his offbeat expat experiences, including linguistic misunderstandings and cultural mix-ups. The show tells the story of being a British expat in France, this time 100% in English. Hold onto your berets!
