At The Ardhowen Theatre · 97 Dublin Road, Enniskillen, Co. Fermanagh, BT74 6FZ
Only the published dates are confirmed for this programme.
Northern Irish comedian Paddy McDonnell, who performs as Paddy Power, brings his stand-up show FULL to the Ardhowen Theatre in Enniskillen on Friday 27 November 2026 at 8pm. McDonnell is from west Belfast and started out on the stand-up circuit in 2011, building his set around tales of working as a taxi driver alongside the everyday material of being a husband and father. He has gone on to perform across the UK and Ireland, sharing stages with major touring acts, and has sold out multiple headline shows of his own at Belfast’s Ulster Hall and Waterfront Hall, two of Northern Ireland’s biggest indoor venues.
FULL is a full-length stand-up set rather than a variety bill, built around McDonnell’s own working-class Belfast voice and observational material drawn from his years driving a taxi and raising a family. It is his first solo tour date at the Ardhowen, following on from Emer Maguire’s Perfectly Chaotic in October and Conal Gallen’s How’s Your Father? in early November, making it the third comedy date in the venue’s autumn 2026 run. The show contains strong language throughout and is restricted to audiences aged 18 and over, so it is not suitable as a family outing. Tickets are £20, booked online through the Ardhowen’s website or by phone through the box office, and are non-transferable and non-refundable once purchased. If the main seating sells out, the theatre sometimes releases a small number of restricted-view front-row seats.
The Ardhowen Theatre sits on the Dublin Road on the southern edge of Enniskillen, overlooking Lough Erne, with its own car park on site. From Belfast the drive takes around 90 minutes on the A4 through Dungannon, and from Dublin about two hours on the N3 through Cavan and Belturbet. Bus Eireann and Translink services run into Enniskillen bus station in the town centre, a short taxi ride from the theatre, with the town’s restaurants and bars a few minutes away for anyone making a night of it.
