Iceland’s biggest comedian is coming to Eindhoven! Ari Eldjárn is born and raised in Reykjavík. He brings comedy about subjects like fatherhood, working as a steward, and living in a country with a population the size of Utrecht.

Ari has done numerous TV specials, toured extensively across Scandinavia, sold out the National Theater for months on end, mixed comedy and classical music with the Icelandic National Symphony and performed with comedians such as Ari Shaffir, Bill Burr and Ed Byrne. Ari’s international career has seen him sold out entire runs at the Edinburgh Fringe, London Soho Theatre and Melbourne Comedy Festival. 

Pardon my Icelandic is his debut solo show in English and explored subjects including fatherhood, working as a flight attendant and living in a country with a population the size of Coventry. Netflix is now streaming the show after being recorded live at the National Theatre of Iceland, making Ari the first Icelandic comedian to receive a Netflix Comedy Special.
