CoCo Comedy Club Special Festival Series featuring Andrea Farrell

The CoCo gigs were a highlight last year with a packed to capacity venue and belly laughs, the craic was definitely had.

Sat 23 Sept, 7pm

MC Karl Spain with Alison Spittle, Fred Cooke, Deirdre O’Kane, and Bernard O’Shea.

This is a cracker of a gig. Call us mad but we’ve put Karl Spain in charge of proceedings. You may not have come across Alison Spittle yet, but you’re about to: she’s only gone and gotten her very own sitcom on RTÉ, launching in autumn. Fred Cooke adds his signature manic zaniness to the mix, while Deirdre O’Kane combines buckets of charm with sparkling wit. Leaving us on a high is Bridget and Eamon star, the inimitable Bernard O’Shea.

Tickets €26
