Widely regarded as one of the hottest comedy nights among the Arab community and beyond, Arabs Are Not Funny sees comedians with roots in the Arab world attempt to prove the naysayers wrong!

This yearly celebration is a rare opportunity to experience the atmosphere of Christmas in the Arab world, with Arabic, Syriac, Coptic and Byzantine chants, harking back to the time of Queen Zanubia’s Palmyra in the second century CE.
