The comic, who will visit the UAE for the first time, will perform on August 13-14 at the Dubai World Trade Centre. 

"I can’t wait to visit Dubai next month as part of Dubai Summer Surprises. This will be the first time I perform for my UAE followers and hope that everyone is ready for a laugh during these strange times!" says Jimmy.
