Chappelle, one of comedy's most distinct voices, will headline Abu Dhabi Comedy Week at the Etihad Arena on May 23.

The show promises to be a laughter-filled extravaganza featuring a star-studded lineup.

Chappelle's trademark comedic style has brought a vibrant edge to American comedy. As demonstrated in his Netflix specials, his unique blending of personal experiences with wider social observations is instantly recognisable.

He left his mark with a memorable live stand-up show at the Dubai World Trade Centre in November 2018.

Tickets go on sale at 10:00 am on April 23, with pre-sale tickets going live at 10:00 am on April 22 via Live Nation.

Abu Dhabi Comedy Week, in partnership with Department of Culture and Tourism – Abu Dhabi and Yas Island, takes place on Yas Island between May 18 and 26.
