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 with millions of views across social media, the Craic Den delivers a seriously good night of live comedy from start to finish.
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).
Colleary has also scooped a PPI award for satirical writing and performance on TodayFM’s drivetime flagship, The Last Word.
Touring as Tommy Tiernan’s support act and recently selling out the Liberty Hall three times with his solo show, John Colleary is without a doubt one of the best acts in the country.
Amy Cassidy
Amy Cassidy is a stand-up comedian on the Dublin circuit, performing regularly at all of the leading clubs. She also runs a monthly all women and non-binary stand up night at Hysteria. Fast, sharp and joke-dense, Amy delivers a high laugh-per-minute set that hits hard and doesn’t let up.
Johnny Candon
One of Ireland’s most sought after comedians; Johnny regularly performs at comedy festivals all over the world. He has delighted audiences as far afield as Melbourne, Sydney, Adelaide, Hong Kong, Bangkok, Singapore, The Middle East and throughout Europe. Johnny has toured with Ricky Gervais, John Oliver and Andy Zaltzman (“The Daily Show”, “Political Animal”).
Plus your MC Eddie Mullarkey
Galway-born comedian Eddie Mullarkey has brought his sharp wit and charm to stages across the globe. A regular in Ireland’s top comedy clubs, Eddie is known for his quick-fire storytelling and easy charisma.
He created, produced, and hosted The Craic Den Comedy Club — a hit stand-up TV show that ran for two seasons on Virgin Media.
Eddie has enjoyed three consecutive sold-out runs at the Edinburgh Fringe (2021–2023) and performed at major festivals throughout Ireland and the UK, including All Together Now, the Paddy Power Comedy Festival, the Galway Comedy Festival, Leicester Comedy Festival, and Brighton Fringe.
David Anthony
City Comedy Club house MC David Anthony brings an inclusive atmosphere which lays the groundwork for a City Comedy Club show. A mix of quit wit and self deprecation, David keeps the night moving while embracing the unpredictability of a live performance.
