Show Details

Acclaimed comedian Trevor Noah is scheduled to present his brand‑new stand‑up routine in Bahrain this December, with the performance set for Terminal 4 by Beyon on December 5.

The organisers, Al Dana Amphitheatre, announced on social media: “Get ready for a night full of laughter!”

Background and Achievements

The South African author and former host of The Daily Show in the US, born in Johannesburg, South Africa, rose to prominence as a senior correspondent on the American late‑night talk and news satire programme before becoming its host from 2015 to 2022.

Over his career he has received 21 Primetime Emmy Award nominations, winning twice.

Based in New York, he has also received four Grammy Award nominations and a Golden Globe nomination.

He hosted the Grammy Awards for six successive years, from 2021 through 2026, and also presented the White House Correspondents’ Dinner in 2022.

His memoir Born A Crime, released in 2016, became a New York Times bestseller and has been optioned for a film adaptation; the book recounts his upbringing in South Africa during the apartheid era.

Upon announcing his departure from The Daily Show, Noah said he wished to revisit stand‑up and visit countries for shows, ‘learning new languages’ and ‘being everywhere, doing everything’.
