About John Achkar

John Achkar is a prominent Lebanese stand-up comedian and entrepreneur. Known for his sharp, witty humor, John draws inspiration from his personal experiences, his upbringing in Lebanon, and the humorous contradictions of everyday life. His style is deeply relatable, often touching on themes such as relationships, societal norms, and the absurdities of modern existence, which resonate with a broad audience across the Middle East and abroad.

Achkar’s comedic career began gaining momentum in 2020 when a viral skit brought him widespread attention.

In addition to his comedy career, John co-founded Everythink, a company specializing in board games for schools and companies, showcasing his entrepreneurial spirit and commitment to fostering creativity.
