Comedian Jo Koy to bring the laughs to Dubai

One of the world’s premiere stand-up comedians, Jo Koy will bring his Funny Is Funny World Tour to the city on December 29.

The hilarious Jo Koy, will be performing in Dubai for one-night only in a highly entertaining evening.

As one of today’s premiere stand-up comics Jo Koy has come a long way from his modest beginnings performing at a Las Vegas coffee house to now selling out the world’s most prestigious venues including Radio City Music Hall (New York) and Chase Center (San Francisco).

The hugely relatable comic pulls inspiration from his family, specifically his son. And for very good reason, as each joke will have crowds erupting in laughter.

Each of his bits land. Even if you didn’t grow up in an Asian household, it’s hilarious to hear about the antics Koy and his family got up to. The ones where he mimics his mother’s reactions from his childhood or when he’s calling out his son for spending too much time by himself are highlights.

Koy, who comes from a Filipino-American family, incorporates Pinoy culture into his acts, from the way his mom would pronounce his name as ‘Josep’ (hilarious) to his background of growing up.

The comedian has had five highly-rated and successful stand-up specials on Comedy Central and Netflix including his latest variety special In His Element current streaming on Netflix with plans to shoot his third stand-up special in 2022.

He can also be heard on his weekly podcast, The Koy Pond with Jo Koy by Starburns Audio.
The performance is brought by Blu Blood Entertainment and Dubai Shopping Festival.

As for the venue, Coca-Cola Arena has everything you’d expect, including loads of food and licensed drink options, along with fantastic views of the show, no matter where you are.
