Joanne McNally Live at Dubai Comedy Festival 2025

Described by The Sunday Times as a ‘truly gifted stand-up’ and praised by Variety as ‘One to Watch’, Joanne is Ireland’s record-breaking comedy queen.

Her previous show, which began in 2019, became a global hit, touring the UK, Ireland, Australia, Dubai, Canada, and the US, selling over 210,000 tickets. Back home, it won Comedy Event of the Year after a 78-show run at Dublin’s Vicar Street.

Joanne co-hosts the wildly popular podcast My Therapist Ghosted Me with Vogue Williams. Launched in 2021, it surpassed 300 episodes and 2.5 million monthly listeners, winning multiple podcast awards. In 2023 and 2024, the podcast toured globally, performing in New York, Sydney, and Dubai, culminating in five sold-out nights at Dublin’s 3Arena. Joanne also hosts Joanne McNally Investigates on BBC Sounds, with episodes like Who Replaced Avril Lavigne?.

A regular on primetime TV, Joanne has appeared on Taskmaster, The Jonathan Ross Show, and The Big Fat Quiz of Everything. She created and presented Baby Hater (TV3), co-hosted Republic of Telly (RTE 2), and appeared on Michael McIntyre’s The Wheel and House of Games (BBC).
