Jamel Debbouze’s Marrakech Comedy Festival Returns After 2-Year Hiatus
Thursday 21 April 2022, by
After two years of absence due to the Covid-19 pandemic, Marrakech du rire is coming alive again with the celebration of its 10th anniversary in June.
Launched in 2011 by Jamel Debbouze, Marrakech du rire would have celebrated its ten years in 2020, were it not for the health crisis of the coronavirus. But with the epidemiological situation having improved in the world, and especially in Morocco, the festival is regaining its colors for millions of fans. The phrase "It’s back" published on Sunday by the comedian on his social networks, delighted many Internet users. The appointment is therefore set from June 15 to 18 in Marrakech, and tickets will be available from April 21.
In ten years, Marrakech du rire has become an essential cultural event, welcoming the most talented artists and comedians. We find shows carefully concocted, free as well as paid. Big names from the sports, music, and film worlds have contributed to the success of these ten years of laughter and humor. We can mention among others, Zinedine Zidane, Thierry Henry, David Trezeguet
