From Joan Rivers and Dawn French to Amy Schumer and Sarah Silverman, women have been knocking it out of the park on the comedy scene for years.

And while there still exists a less than subtle suggestion that men have the market cornered when it comes to the laughs, the Funny Woman Awards have done so much to turn that notion on its head.

Promoting and championing female comics for more than ten years, the Funny Woman Awards are holding their latest event in The Sugar Club next week, and we are PUMPED!

Taking place on Tuesday July 26^th, the good folk behind these awards will be hosting some incredible new acts –  all of whom will be competing for a place in the final.

Not only will you get a sneak peek at the rising stars on the circuit and pick up a free Benefit Cosmetic sample while you're at it, but you’ll doing your bit for charity, with funds raised going towards domestic violence charity, Refuge.

And with tickets coming in at just €10, we know where we'll be next Tuesday!
