Consider this a PSA to carve out space in your calendar. Abu Dhabi Comedy Week is back and this time as a full season – it's bigger, bolder and running longer than ever. Off the back of the wildly successful Abu Dhabi Comedy Week 2024, we're now getting the full-blown Abu Dhabi Comedy Season 2025 – a two-month-long laugh fest that's already well underway. Tickets for headliners like Trevor Noah, Kevin Hart, Gabriel Iglesias and Michael McIntyre are sold out, but don't worry – the fun is far from over. There are still plenty of heavy hitters and rising stars taking the stage, so now's the time to lock in your plans. Running until the end of July, Etihad Arena on Yas Island will be buzzing with punchlines in English, Arabic, French, Russian and Portuguese, making it one of the biggest comedy festivals in the world this year. Whatever kind of comedy tickles your funny bone, something is brewing for every kind of comedy fan during the season. So, who's still on the bill? Let's take a look. Pete Davidson Making his Middle East debut, Pete Davidson brings his distinctive brand of self-deprecating humour and offbeat charm to the stage.

Wed Jun 25. Etihad Arena. Dave Chappelle After his historic sold-out show last year – the largest comedy gig ever held in the Middle East – Dave Chappelle returns to the Etihad Arena.
