Paddy Power Comedy Festival

Iveagh Gardens
23rd-26th July

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.

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

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

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

Where sport meets comedy, like Man Utd.

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

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

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

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

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 used to think I was indecisive.
Now I’m not so sure.
You never forget how to throw a boomerang.
It always comes back to you.
I get really nervous buying groceries online.
I hate putting all my eggs in one basket.

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

Iveagh Gardens
23rd-26th July

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.
