About Craic Den Comedy Club
Dublin's Home of Stand-Up Comedy
Eddie Mullarkey kicked things off back in 2019 in a wee basement on Dame Street at The Mercantile. Craic Den Comedy Club got off to a flying start, running a weekly show with a mix of star headliners and up-and-coming talent.
Then 2020 came around quick and those damn Wuhan bats put a stop to the lols.
But not for long...
Craic Den begins in a basement on Dame Street.
The club moves into The Workman’s Club, our home ever since.
The only 7-night-a-week stand-up comedy club in the country.
When the world calmed down again, we moved to a different wee basement, also on Dame Street. Then finally in late 2021 we moved to The Workman’s Club, which has been our home ever since.
Damo Clark and Gary White joined the team shortly after and since then we’ve gone from strength to strength.
Big Names. New Talent. Every Night.
We regularly have comedy legends grace our stage — Craig Robinson, Mark Normand, Joanne McNally, David O’Doherty, David McSavage, Deirdre O’Kane, Des Bishop, Michelle Wolf and loads more stars from both home and abroad.
More Than Just a Live Club
We’ve also made two hit TV shows for Virgin Media and several comedy specials for YouTube, shining a light on some of Ireland’s funniest acts and giving people a taste of what we do best.
