Their UK stop is part of a five-night-only Europe tour.
Singer Mustafa and comedian Ramy Youssef join forces in London for one night only on Tuesday 18 November at 7.30pm, taking over the Royal Festival Hall at Southbank Centre. The special date is part of a five-stop Europe tour and will see the globally recognised pair share the stage for a co-headlined programme that moves from sharp stand-up to soul-stirring songs.
The evening opens with Ramy Youssef, the Egyptian-American stand-up comedian, actor, and writer, whose work has earned international acclaim. Known for mixing personal reflection with political nuance, Youssef’s sets balance candour and craft, weaving intimate observations with big-picture ideas.
Mustafa follows with a performance drawn from his debut album Dunya, a release that has been widely praised for its quiet power and lyrical precision. The Sudanese-Canadian singer, songwriter and poet writes with economy and emotional clarity, crafting songs that travel between grief, love and community. Dunya has been named among the best albums of 2024 by Rolling Stone, NPR and DAZED, recognition that underlines Mustafa’s standing as one of the most compelling voices in contemporary music.
The collaboration is rooted in a close friendship and ongoing creative partnership. Youssef served as an executive producer on the music video for Mustafa’s 2024 single “Gaza Is Calling”, a track that went on to win the 2025 Polaris Song Prize. Both artists also appeared across Artists for Aid events in New Jersey and London, which Mustafa organised to raise funds for communities affected by the crises in Palestine and Sudan.
For fans of either artist, it is an essential ticket. For newcomers, it is a singular chance to experience two cultural voices at the top of their game.
Pre-sale access opens on Wednesday, 8 October, with public booking from Friday, 10 October at 10am. Ticket prices to see Mustafa and Ramy Youssef in London start from £42 with a £3.50 booking fee
