Russell Howard Is Coming To Dubai Next Month

One of the UK’s biggest comedians Russell Howard is coming to Dubai next month.

You’ll be able to see Russell Howard in Dubai on Monday December 11. The Bristolian will be performing at Dubai Opera.

Heading to the UAE on a comedy roll, Howard has a new comedy show Russell Howard Live, sold over 250,000 tickets to his UK gigs and amassed over one billion views on social media.

Tickets for the gig start from Dhs250 and can be booked on the Dubai Opera website.

Most recently, Howard garnered attention for the sixth season of The Russell Howard Hour on the UK’s Sky One and Howard’s YouTube channel. The episodes are a series of interviews with high-profile guests, including Ed Sheeran, Greta Thunberg and Matthew McConaughey.

Previously, he’s broken records, including the largest-ever stand-up show in China and a ten-night stint at London’s Royal Albert Hall (which broke Frank Sinatra’s record).

Howard’s last world tour was his third and biggest. It saw him entertaining over 300,000 people with his sharp jokes and observations in 79 cities over 24 countries.

The critically acclaimed comedian last played in Dubai back in 2020, where he entertained crowds at Dubai Opera.

Comedy fans are in a treat over the next few months. The Selfdrive Laughter Factory is putting on several shows throughout November and Micheal McIntyre will be hitting the city early 2024.

From Dhs250. Mon Dec 11, 8pm onwards. Dubai Opera, Downtown Dubai, dubaiopera.com.
