Because happy mums help grow happy babies.
Motherhood begins long before the first hello. In the final months of pregnancy, little ones are already responding to their mum’s laughter, voice, and the world around her — making every shared experience even more meaningful.
And few things lower stress quite like laughter. So to celebrate International Women’s Day, Sunday, March 8, 2026, The Laughter Factory is turning science into smiles by inviting women in their third trimester of pregnancy to attend ANY OF ITS MARCH SHOWS free of charge at its non-smoking venues.
Expectant mums can enjoy an evening of live comedy in a shared, uplifting collective atmosphere. The line-up features three top stand-up comedians.
“By the third trimester, women are carrying far more than a bump — they’re carrying responsibility, anticipation, and often a fair bit of stress,” says Gail Clough, Founder of the legendary Laughter Factory. “Laughter creates positive stress, known as eustress, which replaces energy-draining emotions with energising ones. It’s good for mum, and it’s good for baby.”
With comfortable seating and a relaxed environment, this is a perfect way for mums-to-be to celebrate International Women’s Day, and share good vibes with their baby to be.
The Laughter Factory in March is led by one of Ireland’s most in demand, comedy talents: Andrew Ryan.
Originally from Cork, Ryan has had two comedy specials, sold-out tours across Ireland, the UK and Europe, and more than 38 million online views. His TV credits include appearances on BBC, ITV, Comedy Central and Virgin Media, and he’s known for combining warm Irish storytelling with sharp, well-crafted jokes. Ryan brings sharp writing, effortless charm and brilliantly observed humour to the stage.
Meanwhile, for non-mums-to-be, early bird tickets for the March gigs – taking place across Dubai, and in Abu Dhabi and Ras Al Khaimah – are on sale until February 28th, priced at AED 140, with limited availability and the best value for comedy fans who book ahead.
