Paddy Power Comedy Festival

Iveagh Gardens
July 25th-28th

Where sport meets comedy, like Man Utd.

You never forget how to throw a boomerang.
It always comes back to you.
I used to think I was indecisive.
Now I’m not so sure.

I backed a horse last week at 10 to 1.
It came in at quarter past four.

It takes a lot of balls to play golf the way I do.

I get really nervous buying groceries online.
I hate putting all my eggs in one basket.

Got fired from the calendar factory.
All I did was take a day off.

I was addicted to the hokey cokey, but then I turned myself around.

Despite a stiff neck, bowed back and feeling strung out,
my doctor says I’m as fit as a fiddle.

People are shocked when they find out how bad I am as an electrician.

Earth, Venus and Mars were going to organise a party.
Unfortunately nobody knew how to planet.

People who use selfie sticks really need to have a good, long look at themselves.

Jokes about online shopping don’t need much setup.
It’s all in the delivery.

If you want to set up a company and run it then that’s your business.

My friend, a milliner, got fired for skiving off work.
She’d just leave at the drop of a hat.

I get really nervous buying groceries online.
I hate putting all my eggs in one basket.
I used to think I was indecisive.
Now I’m not so sure.
Despite a stiff neck, bowed back and feeling strung out,
my doctor says I’m as fit as a fiddle.

It takes a lot of balls to play golf the way I do.

Earth, Venus and Mars were going to organise a party.
Unfortunately nobody knew how to planet.
My friend, a milliner, got fired for skiving off work.
She’d just leave at the drop of a hat.
You never forget how to throw a boomerang.
It always comes back to you.

People who use selfie sticks really need to have a good, long look at themselves.

People are shocked when they find out how bad I am as an electrician.

I was addicted to the hokey cokey, but then I turned myself around.

I backed a horse last week at 10 to 1.
It came in at quarter past four.
Got fired from the calendar factory.
All I did was take a day off.
Jokes about online shopping don’t need much setup.
It’s all in the delivery.

Iveagh Gardens
July 25th-28th

The Iveagh Gardens is a garden (shocker) smack bang in the middle of Dublin, but it’s hidden away behind the National Concert Hall, so it’s got that cool, “oh you’ve never been to the Iveagh Gardens?” thing going on. The entrance is just off Harcourt Street. We’d tell you how to get there, but come on – it’s the 21st century. Put it into Google Maps.
