French comedian Dieudonné M'bala M'bala is an openly antisemitic Holocaust denier. He has been convicted for hate speech, advocating terrorism, and slander in Belgium, France and Switzerland and has also been banned from performing shows as his antisemitism is mainly expressed in his shows.[1] However, Dieudonné is still active on his official website, on the Odysee streaming network, on Twitter and on Telegram.

On May 26, Dieudonné posted on his Telegram channel a photo of his "Dieudo-bus" driving through various French and Belgian cities. A large crowd of people can be seen standing around Dieudonné and his tour bus, which is covered with pineapple drawings, presumably an allusion to his song "Shoananas" – a portmanteau of "Shoah" and the French word for "pineapple" – which mocks the Holocaust.
Dieudonné wrote on Telegram: "We are fully booked in Brussels tonight! Tomorrow [5/27] we will be [in Belgium]. Next weekend in Luxembourg and Metz [in France]!" The channel added a link to Dieudonne's website, where tickets can be booked.
Previously, Dieudonné had promoted his "Dieudo tour bus" throughout France. The shows were performed on the bus, and booking had to be done in advance as the number of seats on the bus are limited. The bus then reportedly moved on to Belgium and Luxembourg.
