Get your laughing gear down to these.
Seeing as we do a weekly feature about go-to music gigs, we thought it only fair that the funny men and women are given some loving too.
This is our new fortnightly feature about the best of the upcoming comedy gigs around the country.
Who: Gearoid Farrelly, Chris Kent
Where: September 15-19
When: Smock Alley, Dublin
The Tiger Dublin Fringe offers up two of Ireland’s rising comedy stars for the price of one. Both are back after hugely successful runs at the Edinburgh Fringe and for €11, you are getting an absolute bargain of a double-header.

Who: Tommy Tiernan
Where: September 10-13

Needs no introduction, but it’s nice to see someone as big as Tommy Tiernan going back to his roots here and playing the famous Cork comedy club.
City Limits was the venue for the recording of his Crooked Man DVD.
