Paul McCaffrey

Bedlam, back by the sea. Ballyrags returned to The Royal Esplanade Hotel in Ryde for another stacked night of stand-up — vibrant atmosphere, seaside charm, and belly laughs galore.

Headlining was Paul McCaffrey, a star of Live at the Apollo and Russell Howard's Good News and a regular on the UK's biggest comedy stages. A powerhouse of observational humour and razor-sharp timing, Paul's mix of hilarious storytelling and effortless charm has made him one of Britain's most loved stand-ups.

Supporting him, a hand-picked line-up of rising talent, with host Luke Lamont — the quick-witted Ballyrags regular known for sharp crowd work and infectious energy — guiding the room through a night of bold, unfiltered comedy. Fresh faces, big laughs, and a proper night out by the sea.
