Trevor Noah to Host UTH Festival at Grand Egyptian Museum

Trevor Noah will headline the third edition of UTH Festival, set to take place at the Grand Egyptian Museum on November 20th and 21st. The announcement adds the South African comedian, writer and producer to this year’s event.

Noah is a two-time Emmy Award winner and the former host of The Daily Show. He currently hosts the weekly podcast What Now? with Trevor Noah and most recently returned to host and executive produce the 2026 Grammy Awards, marking his sixth consecutive year as host.

The 2026 UTH Festival will centre on the theme ‘Work in Progress’, exploring the idea of young people continuing to evolve, experiment and change rather than being expected to have everything figured out. Programming will run across six tracks: Fashion & Design, Money, Creator Economy, Film & Music, Food, and Sports.
