A wild ride of hilarity awaits, from the chaos of wedding planning to the wild unknown of parenthood, as Jamie Laing and Sophie Habboo touch down in Dubai as part of the upcoming Dubai Comedy Festival. The beloved British duo are barrelling into their next big chapter, and bringing audiences along for the ride, making their Middle East debut with the NearlyParents Podcast Live at Dubai Opera on Saturday, October 11th. A show that promises laughs from start to finish, anecdotes, silly gags, ridiculous one-liners, and everything in between will be the order of business at this not-to-be-missed event.
Returning for its fifth and funniest year yet, the Dubai Comedy Festival is taking place from October 2nd to 12th across some of the city’s most iconic venues, including Dubai Opera and the Coca-Cola Arena. Produced by BRAG and presented by Dubai Calendar, this edition promises another unforgettable run of multicultural humour and laugh-out-loud moments. Among the acts already confirmed are global sensations Tom Segura, Zakir Khan, Redouane Bougheraba, Morgan Jay, Amer Zahr, Omid Djalili, Akaash Singh, Joanne McNally, John Achkar, and Ivan Abramov, making 2025 the most exciting year yet.
Hot off their podcast rebrand, from NewlyWeds to NearlyParents following their June pregnancy reveal, Jamie and Sophie are stepping into the spotlight once again with their signature blend of candid storytelling, marital madness, and now, parenting panic. Fans can expect an evening of sharp banter, raw honesty, and hilarious oversharing as the couple navigates everything from baby scans and morning sickness to the reality of becoming first-time parents.
With their heartfelt announcement on Instagram and a new era underway, NearlyParents is the next hilarious chapter in a love story that’s been anything but traditional. Jamie’s infectious energy and Sophie’s razor-sharp wit make for a comedy combo like no other, and their live show promises plenty of laugh-out-loud moments, relatable revelations, and maybe even a few unexpected tears.
Presented by Live Nation Middle East, and with limited seats available, make sure to secure your tickets before it’s too late. To find out about all the highjinx this dynamic duo have been up to recently, check out their Instagram @nearlyparentspodcast.
