Stand-up show by Irish comedian Ed Byrne, recommended for ages 16+, with captioned, relaxed, audio described and BSL performances available.
Ed Byrne is back in Harrogate with his new show, No Dramas, playing the Royal Hall on Saturday 1 May 2027. It's a brand-new run, so you'll be seeing fresh material rather than a repeat of his last tour.
If you've never seen him live, Byrne has built a whole career out of the small things. He's often called the 'conquistador of petty gripes', and that's a fair description: the show is built around him airing his grievances with a world that seems hell-bent on irritating us. It's observational comedy in its purest form, the kind of set that takes the everyday annoyances we all recognise and stretches them out until they're genuinely funny.
He's a familiar face on television, too. He's hosted Live At The Apollo and spent years as a panellist on Mock the Week and Have I Got News for You. He's also a bit of a quiz nut, with appearances on Celebrity Mastermind and Celebrity Pointless, and he's a regular contributor to comedy and music shows on BBC Radio 2, 4 and 6 Music. The critics have been on board with No Dramas, too: Rolling Stone UK called it 'hilarious... verging on greatness', the Evening Standard 'fantastically funny', and The Times 'just glorious', while the Sunday Telegraph put him 'at the top of his game'.

Practical details: the show starts at 8:00pm and runs for 110 minutes, so it's a full evening's worth of comedy. Tickets range from £31.00 to £61.00, with the top price for a box that seats two. It's recommended for ages 16+, and there are captioned, relaxed, audio described and British Sign Language interpreted performances available.
