About Dubomedy
We are the pioneers of the local comedy community in the UAE and we do “all things comedy” including event and festival production, stand-up, sketch comedy, variety arts, script and content writing, brand campaigns, hosting and comedy training.
We have been making the UAE belly laugh since 2008, when award-winning comedians Mina Liccione and Ali Al Sayed teamed up to create a grassroots comedy community based in Dubai and gave birth to Dubomedy.
As we celebrate more than a decade of funny-making business in the desert, we can proudly say we have introduced thousands of people to the craft of stand-up comedy and improv through our Dubomedy Arts School. The UAE today has a thriving local comedy scene, and it makes us happy to see our alumni performing regularly and even filming comedy specials.
We use comedy as a tool to bring together people of diverse cultural, religious and financial backgrounds, uniting them through laughter and breaking down stereotypes. If you haven’t been to one of our shows yet, you are really missing out!
Founded in 2008, Dubomedy has played a key role in shaping stand up and improv comedy in the region.
Led by comedians Mina Liccione and Ali Al Sayed, Dubomedy works across live performance, education, and creative production.

Sunday Night Comedy
What I really enjoyed about the Dubomedy stand-up course was learning about the different comedic styles of famous comedians and exploring what style suits me best. Having comedy homework also justified my nightly Netflix binges. The course has made me a lot braver in my everyday life. I’m a lot more comfortable taking up space and being in my own skin. I used to shrink out of people’s way and not make eye contact to discourage small talk, but now I’m comfortable with looking people in the eye and outright discouraging small talk by striding confidently away. The course has made me excited to try new things and I’m no longer worried about looking stupid while doing them.
After taking my first Dubomedy course in 2015, performance nerves and self-doubt nearly caused me to give up comedy as I am naturally a shy person. With Mina’s encouragement I continued and now I can’t imagine my life without it. Comedy has filled a void in me and brings me a huge amount of joy. I have done seven stand-up courses with Dubomedy as they are such a fun way to spend a Saturday afternoon, and performing at the professionally produced showcase is always an incredible experience. I am now pushing my boundaries further by taking the improv classes.
