Cork City FC is hosting a special comedy night next month

And it features some of the countries best comedians!

Hosted by Cork City FC, ‘City Til I Die…Laughing’ is taking place in the Everyman on Thursday, October 31st and proceeds from the ticket sales will go towards the club’s Women’s and Academy Teams.

Cork native Andrew Ryan will be joined by fellow Corkman Chris Kent with Emma Doran, Shane Todd and John Colleary also on the bill.

There are currently four academy boys teams and two girls teams at the club, competing in the League of Ireland Academy leagues.  The six squads include players from all over Munster, who show great commitment in travelling for training and matches every week.

Comedian Emma Doran is just one of the big names for the event

The goal of the academy is to give every player the opportunity to achieve their potential whether that is playing at national level with the club, at international level for their country, or beyond. The academy also invests a lot of time and skills into building resilience within each of the players and supporting their mental health and wellbeing.

Anthony O’Sullivan, Commercial Director at Cork City FC, said; “We’re really excited about the comedy night and I would like to thank Andrew and all the other comedians for supporting us in this special fundraiser.

“The Women’s Team and the Academy are going from strength to strength and we are seeing an increase in interest from the public, particularly from young girls who want to play football. It is important for us to be able to support these teams so that they can continue to develop and improve.”  

Tickets for ‘City ‘Til I Die…Laughing’ at the Everyman are €35 and are available to purchase from https://everymancork.com/events/city-til-i-die-laughing/
