The line ups stacked with Ireland’s top comedians:

Andrew Maxwell

Andrew has recorded three Live DVDs with 2Entertain (Conflict Revolution, Andrew Maxwell: Live In Dublin & Andrew Maxwell: One Inch Punch).

Maxwell also went viral recently talking about the Irish Border and Brexit stating, “Number one, it’s not the Irish border, it’s the British border in Ireland. The Irish border is the beach,” this was watched by over 200million people worldwide and had over 250,000 comments.

“…a master-class in mirth. Sublime timing, relaxed delivery style, killer punch-lines: the holy trinity of stand-up are all present and correct. Go see a craftsman at work”  HERALD ★★★★★

John Colleary

As well as performing live, John has also co written and starred in IFTA nominated shows, The Savage Eye (RTE2) and Irish Pictoral Weekly (RTE1). 

A talented actor and mimic, John recently featured as team captain on comedy panel show Hey Ho Let’s Go! (RTE2).

Colleary has also scooped a PPI award for satirical writing and performance on TodayFM’s drivetime flagship, The Last Word.

Touring now as Tommy Tiernan’s support act, John Colleary is definitely one to watch.

Sharon Mannion

Karl Spain

Karl Spain has long been established as one of Ireland’s most popular comedians, from his own tours and touring with others, and has appeared at festivals all over the world. Karl has worked with some of the world’s greatest comedians ( his peers ahem, cough). 

Karl has spent most of 2022 touring with Kevin Bridges because Kevin finds him very funny – or because Kevin uses Karl to remind him to keep the weight off. Hopefully the former. 

Karl has written for lots of comedians over the last decade or so, so you have been laughing at his jokes even when you didn’t realise it. But he has kept all the best jokes for himself.

“The audience were in the palm of his hand” – Metro

Chris Kent

Hailing from ‘The Rebel County’ (That’s Cork for anyone outside Ireland), Chris gave up the day job as an electrician to pursue his calling in comedy. He emerged onto the Irish comedy scene in 2009 after winning the Bulmers Nuttin’ But Funny competition.

He quickly established himself on the Irish circuit and became sought out to open for some of his favourite acts, including Dylan Moran, David O’ Doherty, PJ Gallagher, Neil Delamare, Jim Gaffigan and Bill Burr to name but a few.

Since then Chris has been a staple favourite in Ireland’s biggest festivals such as Dublin’s Iveagh Gardens, Kilkenny Cats Laughs, Galway Comedy Festival and Electric Picnic.

Gearoid Farrelly

He recently toured the UK as a support act for Sarah Millican and here in Ireland for Joanne McNally. His own tour ‘Glamour Hammer’ has been selling out dates all over the country and another Vicar St has just been added.
