David O'Doherty at Vicar Street

David O’Doherty is one of Ireland’s most beloved comedians. Armed with his tiny Casio keyboard and a seemingly infinite supply of charm, he plays Vicar Street, Dublin, on Saturday, 21 November 2026, at 8:00pm.

What to expect

Songs on a tiny keyboard alongside observational stand-up is O’Doherty’s trademark, gentle and warm rather than sharp-edged, built from small, sharply observed moments rather than big set-piece routines, and it’s a style that has taken him from small Dublin rooms to international stages and screen work over a long career. A Vicar Street date is a home game for him: expect a set that mixes new material with the songs longtime fans come back for, delivered with the kind of self-deprecating charm that makes even his oldest jokes feel fresh. Tickets are sold through Ticketmaster via the Vicar Street listing, with prices starting from €30.

Getting there

Vicar Street is at 58-59 Thomas Street, Dublin 8, in the Liberties, close to Christ Church Cathedral and the Guinness Storehouse. The venue has been open since 1998, was extended in 2002, and holds up to 1,050 seated or 1,500 standing depending on how a show is configured; a solo comedy night like this is typically a seated show.

While you’re in Dublin

Thomas Street and the Liberties have plenty of bars and restaurants around Vicar Street for before or after the show, so there’s no need to rush straight home once the encore’s done, and it’s an easy area to build into a full night out in Dublin 8. There is more to see across Co. Dublin.
