Wow.

If you fancy having a chuckle and supporting a very important cause on St. Patrick’s Day, you’ll be very pleased to know that the cream of Irish stand-up comedy will be gathering at the 3Arena for the very first Irish event in support of Comic Relief.

Spearheaded by comedian Deirdre O’Kane and TV producer Darren Smith, Paddy’s Night in Support of Comic Relief will feature a who’s who of the Irish comedy scene including Tommy Tiernan, Dara O’Briain, Ardal O’Hanlon, Jason Byrne, Deirdre O’Kane, Abandoman, Des Bishop, Bernard O’Shea, Ed Byrne, David O’Doherty, Panti Bliss, Alison Spittle,PJ Gallagher and Al Porter.

Yeah, we were absolutely amazed at that bill also.

The event will raise much needed funds for a variety of Irish and International causes in association with Comic Relief. All profits from the ticket sales will be donated to Comic Relief UK, who will distribute the funds via Irish charities in line with their vision of a just world, free from poverty. The funds will be split between domestic and international projects that help people living incredibly tough lives in Ireland and around the world.

Paddy’s Night in Support of Comic Relief tickets go on sale from www.ticketmaster.ie from 9am on Friday 10th February, priced at €39.00 and €45.00 per ticket, plus booking fees.
