Neil Delamere
Award-winning comedian Neil Delamere is one of the top acts working in the Irish comedy scene today, well known to audiences for his regular television appearances on RTE and the BBC as well as his hilarious sell-out stand up tours.
With stellar reviews as well as a number of platinum-selling DVDs under his belt, Neil has turned his attention to comedy documentaries, writing and presenting IFTA Award- and Celtic Media Award-winning TV programmes on the Vikings and St. Patrick. His four part series on heroes from Ireland’s past, Holding out for a Hero, was recently broadcast as part of RTE 2’s autumn schedule.
“No TV camera could accurately measure the lightning speed of Delamere’s wit.”
— The Irish Times
Never one to sit around, Neil is also back in the hot seat with The Blame Game, the perennially popular BBC panel show, back for its 14th season in 2018. He is a regular panellist on BBC 5 Live's Fighting Talk and recently appeared on BBC 4's The News Quiz.
“You’ll be hard-pressed to find a more gifted comic at the Fringe *****”
— The Scotsman
Neil continues to tour extensively at home and internationally, with appearances at the Kilkenny Cat Laughs, the Melbourne International Comedy Festival, the Edinburgh Fringe Festival and the Montreal Just For Laughs Festival (from which he presented the RTE television series covering the event) to name just a few.
His shows at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival have garnered rave reviews, including a coveted five stars from The Scotsman, the premier broadsheet reviewer at the event.
Shane Clifford
Shane Clifford is a comedian from Tralee, Co Kerry. Shane made his stand-up debut at the age of 30, having already been popular online making funny, sometimes strange videos under his alias ‘Brilliant Shane’.
He has since appeared all around the country including venues like Whelans, The Cork Comedy Festival and The Everyman in Cork plus winning the JOE.ie Rising Star Award.

Aidan Greene
Aidan Greene is undoubtedly Ireland’s foremost stammering comedian. Since stuttering his way into comedy in 2010 he’s become a regular headliner in comedy clubs across Ireland. He is also a regular performer at every major Irish comedy festival including the Vodafone Comedy Festival, Longitude, Indiependance and The Cat Laughs as well being a regular tour support for some of Ireland’s top comedians. From 2016 to 2019 Aidan had consecutive sell out runs with his solo shows “(500) Days of Stammer”, “Stutter Island”, “Eternal Sunshine of the Stammer Man” and “Did I Stutter?”.
These shows were subsequently performed to acclaim in Dublin, Galway, Albuquerque, and Montreal. Last year he returned to the Edinburgh Fringe for another sold-out run with his show “I Know What You Did Last Stammer”. Following this he performed the show at the Dublin Fringe festival.
As well as a comedian Aidan is also an accomplished storyteller. In 2016 he was runner up in the Moth Grand Slam in Dublin. His story The Early Days of Stammer was featured on the Moth Radio Hour and was broadcast on over 400 radio stations globally, to a listenership of over 30 million. In 2017, he was invited to speak at National Stammering Awareness Day in Dublin about being a stuttering performer.
Last year he hosted “The Stammies”: the British Stammering Associations first ever stammering awards. You can also see Aidan on the Try Channel, one of Ireland’s biggest YouTube Channels, which has over a million subscribers.
Darren Gaffney
Darren is a comedian hailing from County Cavan - unlike most Cavan men he can attest he no longer has his Communion money. Darren is making his way up through the Irish comedy scene having performed at most of the top clubs in the country. He has also performed in cities acoss the UK. You can find him gigging around the clubs in Dublin on a weekly basis, or in clubs all around the country. He attended Edinburgh Fringe 2024 where he headlined gigs for the first time.
He started his own comedy club 'Bite The Bullet Comedy' in 2024, which has gone from strength to strength since the first show in back in May '24. Darren MC's the show and plans to continue to grow and develop the club.
