This year the team behind Kilkenny Cat Laughs are doing things bit differently!

Alongside some of your favourite Irish comedians, the team are introducing lots of brilliant standups from England, Scotland and Wales who’ve never played in Ireland or Kilkenny before.

So as well as splitting your sides in the company of your comedy favourites, you can get an exclusive first look at the stars of the future, hand-picked by the Cat Laughs team.

The first shows are live now on the festival website so you can start to build your weekend in Kilkenny. We’ll be following up in the coming weeks with a full weekend programme of joyous laughter.
