The IMA Comedy Club is back for its 6th edition, from January 29 to February 2, 2025. French- and Arabic-speaking comedians take turns at this festival, and a queer and humor evening showcases different talents. Discover the full program.

In April 2018, theInstitut du Monde Arabe(IMA) launched its first Comedy Weekend, an event showcasing French stand-up talent from immigrant backgrounds. This programming quickly found its audience, then grew into theIMA Comedy Club, a multi-day comedy festival that brings together young talent and accomplished comedians on the stage of the Institut du Monde Arabe.

The festival celebrates its sixth edition, from January 29 to February 2, 2025. This year's edition is once again led by TarikSeddak, former artistic director of Studio Bagel, Golden moustache and the Jamel Comedy Club. He is joined by over fifteen comedians and stand-uppers, all determined to make us laugh.

Relationships, culture clashes, everyday challenges, friends, family, love, money, current affairs... The subjects are as varied as the styles of these guests. The program features shows in French, but also in various Arabic dialects . Once again this year, the Institut du Monde Arabe is offering a queer and funny evening, with the "Habibi" program.
