Laughter is set to echo through the heart of Dublin once again as the Paddy Power Comedy Festival returns to the stunning Iveagh Gardens from Thursday, July 24th to Sunday, July 27th, 2025. With more than 90 top-tier comedians performing across four stages, the festival promises four days of world-class entertainment, outrageous humour, and electric atmosphere.
This year’s line-up features a mix of international comedy heavyweights and Ireland’s finest comedic talent. Headliners include Simon Brodkin, Janine Harouni, Daniel Sloss, Fern Brady, Jamie Lee, and Rosebud Baker, alongside fast-rising stars like Red Richardson, Kyrah Gray, and Elliott Steel.
Flying the flag for Ireland are homegrown legends such as Tommy Tiernan, Jason Byrne, Deirdre O’Kane, Emma Doran, Neil Delamere, Vittorio Angelone, and Young Hot Guys - the trio of Tony Cantwell, Killian Sunderman, and Shane Daniel Byrne.
“This summer marks our 20th year in the Iveagh Gardens,” said Festival Director Bren Berry of Aiken Promotions. “We’re proud to continue highlighting Irish comedic talent alongside some of the best from around the world.”
Paddy Power Brand Manager Dean Finn added, “Each year just gets better. Expect wit, irreverence, and comedy that doesn’t pull its punches - exactly the kind of mayhem we love.”
With food stalls, bars, and a unique open-air setting, the Paddy Power Comedy Festival is one of the most anticipated cultural events of the Irish summer.
Tickets go on sale this Friday, June 13th at 10am, and are sold on a show-by-show basis. This is a strictly over-18s event.
