We really do get great use out of the Iveagh Gardens these days, I remember it as a sleepy little garden lots behind some office blocks, but now it’s the venue for gigs and a variety of shows right the way through the summer months. The Vodafone Comedy Festival is back for its 3rd year, and it has the usual box of tricks and some familiar faces.

The homegrown talent is pretty impressive also, and it’s great to see Dylan Moran back on our shores.
