"It's rare for comedy to merit the word 'masterful' but in this case it is no overstatement" - The SCOTSMAN - Edinburgh

Ireland's 'lord of the laughs', Ed Byrne is back downunder to headline the 2007 NZ International Comedy Festival.

One of the masters of stand-up in the U.K. and amongst the 'A List' on the global touring circuit. Local N.Z. audiences have kept pace with his meteoric rise on 3 previous sold-out tours.

When BYRNE returned to the 'Holy Grail' of comedy festivals in Edinburgh in 2006, he proved to be the hottest act with over 15,000 tickets sold.

After a 3 year absence from NZ, he returns with his latest two hour stand-up show - 'Standing Up / Falling Down', including special guest Paul Ego from The Rock FM.

"Catch him before he's swallowed up by global fame" - The GUARDIAN U.K.

"Hottest tip this year is ED BYRNE ... Fluent, assured and wicked" - Sunday Times UK
