Accepting inevitable errors this is a list of every bookable comedy night in central Dublin. I’ll keep it updated as nights come and go. I’ve left out the Laughter Lounge, Dublin’s only purpose built standup venue, as AFAIK they don’t give gigs to “non professional” comedians. Leave a comment if you spot an error or omission.
