Description
Experience one of Belfast’s most unique comedy nights at Craic The Gong, hosted at The Spaniard in the Cathedral Quarter. This interactive show runs every Wednesday and Sunday, plus the 2nd and 4th Tuesday of each month. This is not a typical stand-up show. Comedians take to the stage, but if they don’t win over the crowd, they risk being “gonged” off early. The power is in your hands, making every show fast-paced, unpredictable, and completely different every time. Enjoy a lively atmosphere in an intimate venue, with a mix of rising talent, seasoned performers, and unexpected moments throughout the night. Whether you’re visiting Belfast or looking for something different, this experience guarantees big laughs and a night you won’t forget.

We had a fantastic time. The venue was only small and you were seated on arrival. A great variety of comedians and plenty laughs. The host was very attentive in making sure we were enjoying ourselves. Would definitely recommend 👌

Great night out
I went to this show and left my wife and kids at the house, I laughed so hard at some of the comedians performing! I never laugh like that at my wife or kids, they’re funny, but not like this. I will leave them at home more often. Maybe one day I will leave them for good.

A Fun Night
It was great craic 🤣 3 minute bursts of comedy. The compare was the funniest, could be on tv. The bar upstairs is quite small and got very hot but great atmosphere. Got my 2 tickets so cheap so was well worth it.
