FRIDAY 13TH JUNE

Doors 9pm / Show at 9:30pm SHARP

Unlucky for some – NOT US! Craic Den Comedy Club brings the best Irish and international comedians to the stage every week in Dublin city. As seen on their acclaimed TV show on Virgin Media and millions of views on social media, the Craic Den will deliver you the gift of festive laughs all evening long.

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. 

Katie Boyle

Katie Boyle is an Irish comedian living in New York City.

Her favorite stand-up topics are her journey through American culture, dating, therapy and shame! She performed as a “New Face” in the 2023 Just For Laughs Festival in Montreal, and was featured in NY Funniest showcase and New York Comedy Festival in 2022.

Katie’s debut album and special, I’ll Do It Myself, was released through Pinch Records in summer of 2023. The album hit #1 on iTunes Comedy Charts and is currently available to stream on all major platforms. Her last special, Don’t Tell, premiered last November.

Joe Dowlin

Cheeky Dubliner Joe Dowlin burst onto the Irish comedy scene 9 years ago. His madcap, high energy style mixed with a unique skill for storytelling made him popular in all the comedy clubs at home and abroad. Joe has been a finalist in numerous competitions, including Ireland’s Got Comedy Talent at The Laughter Lounge where he is now a regular performer.

He has also graced the stages of Electric Picnic, Galway Comedy Festival, Kilkenny Cat Laughs Comedy Festival, All Together Now and more festivals alongside the likes of Tommy Tiernan, PJ Gallagher, Phill Jupitus and Des Bishop.

Sophia Wren

Sophia Wren burst on to the comedy scene and within her first year of performing regularly in Dublin’s Comedy Clubs, she appeared on Whelan’s main Stage for ‘Funny Women’ alongside Justine Stafford and Deirdre O’Kane, opened for top Irish acts such as Killian Sunderman, Karl Spain, Emma Doran, Peter McGann and huge international acts like Fin Taylor. Sophia won Ireland’s biggest comedy competition ‘Show me The funny’ and was a finalist at the prestigious ‘So You Think You’re Funny’ at the Edinburgh Fringe. Last summer saw Sophia perform at many Festivals including the main stage at Paddy Power Comedy Festival and the Comedy Arena at Electric Picnic. Sophia’s first solo show ‘Princess Melancholy’ enjoyed a sold-out 6 night run at Dublin Fringe Festival last September and is due to make its debut at Edinburgh Fringe 2025.
