100% Dry – A solo hour of raw, dry Irish stand-up from Justin Cassidy: deadpan delivery, obscure jokes, irreverent truths, and long awkward silences that build real tension before they land. Subtle, dark humour that rewards anyone who listens closely. From a rural Monaghan farm to full-time comedy: 4+ years, 500+ gigs across Ireland/Europe. Seen at Electric Picnic 2024, finalist in Show Me The Funny (2024 & 2026), sold-out play 'Showpony' at Dublin's Scene & Heard 2025, BBC Northern Ireland pilot How’s She Cutting, Barcelona Fringe premiere Nov 2025, and Medellín, Madrid runs.

TEDx-style talks, but nerdier and with a twist. Each presentation has exactly 20 slides, and each slide advances automatically after 20 seconds (yes, PowerPoint really is that awesome). Each day, a different lineup of comedians from around the Fringe gives talks on their nerdy passions, inspired by the Japanese Pecha Kucha presentation style. The final talk is a mystery slideshow, where comedians pretend to be experts on slides they have never seen before. Presentations can cover anything from science, history, geography, philosophy, art, pop culture, sports, and more. Every talk is followed ...

Do you love getting older? Do you hate getting older? Then this line-up show is for you! International comedians unpack the laugh-or-you’ll-cry experience of middle-age. Unlike Millenials, we don’t have mental health issues; we have a personality. We don’t whine about toxic relationships; we call it marriage. We don’t ghost, we divorce. We’ve found our life purpose thanks - it’s a burnout with benefits. Come join us for a healthy dose of comedy. Because - let's face it - turmeric can only do so much. A show for those who are young at heart, just not in the face. Hosted by midlife...

Welcome to Comedy Against Humanity, where the fourth wall doesn’t just break… it volunteers, grabs a microphone, and sets the night ablaze. This is not a “sit quietly and clap politely” kind of show. This is a living, laughing, audience-powered comedy experiment where you help decide what happens next. Inspired by the outrageous spirit of Cards Against Humanity, every night brings a new twist. Tuesdays channel your favorite sitcom chaos. Thursdays dive into Disney-fueled mayhem. Fridays spin the wheel of fate. Wednesdays and Saturdays turn improv into a social sport with BeerProv.

Merryck’s back with a new show that, despite the title, has absolutely nothing to do with cooking. Just another hour of new jokes and daft stories to cheer you up in these troubled times. Many comedians produce shows with depth and meaning, that will slowly reveal some kind of message, and you may leave having learned something about the world around you and, perhaps even, yourself. None of that nonsense here. You will learn nothing and may even leave slightly thicker than when you arrived. It’s a good laugh though, and goes down well with a pint of chemical Lager or other similar non-organic ...

Lizzie Simpson has always been told she should be more confident, as if that helps in any way. Now a Leicester Square New Comedian Runner Up 2025, this "gleefully ribald" (The Scotsman) oversharer is asking the hard questions. What is true confidence? Where does it come from? And can it be found in a book written by a millionaire?...

The Double G Comedy Rodeo is not your typical comedy night; it’s a full-throttle ride into the wild side of stand-up. A mash-up of chaos, charisma, and killer comedy, the Rodeo takes everything you think you know about a comedy show and gleefully turns it on its head. It’s in-your-face, up-close comedy that doesn’t just break the fourth wall; it invites the audience right through it. Expect fast laughs, fearless performances, and a show that feels as unpredictable as it is unforgettable. The Rodeo thrives on spontaneity; comics bounce off the crowd, moments spiral into mayhem, and somehow,...

A dark and stormy night. A vampire’s castle outlined by lightning. An hour to find and kill the dreaded fiend... And one idiot trying to manage the escalating chaos. Join a fast-paced, hilariously deadly choose-your-own adventure. Three players at a time must decide how to approach a variety of obstacles to reach the vampire’s chamber, BUT one of the players is evil and the audience must decide who before it’s too late. This is the debut solo show from award winning writer and performer Jonathan Laury (Best Comedy, Unrestricted View Film Festival 2019). Think Knightmare meets Traitors, p...
