Neil Delamere is one of the top acts working in the Irish comedy scene today, best known to audiences for his regular appearances on RTE's The Panel and BBC's The Blame Game.

He has performed all over Ireland as well as at the prestigious Kilkenny Cat Laughs festival, the Montreal Just For Laughs Festival, the Melbourne International Comedy Festival and the New Zealand Comedy Festival. He featured in both series of Liffey Laughs, RTE's stand-up show in 2005 and 2006 as well as The World Stands Up for Paramount.

In 2007 Neil returned to Montreal to perform in the Just for Laughs Festival while also presenting the RTE television series covering the event, Neil Delamere's Just for Laughs for the second year in a row.
His first DVD "No Message" was released in October of that year and quickly achieved platinum status.

A year later Neil's Edinburgh Fringe Festival show attracted rave 5 star reviews and lead to an appearance on Michael McIntyre's Comedy Roadshow on BBC1.

2009's Edinburgh show 'Bookmarks' once again garnered multiple 5 star reviews.

Neil's second DVD, Crème Delamere will be released Nov 6 2009.

Filmed in Vicar Street at the end of an acclaimed sell out run, it captures his sharp observational eye and hilarious storytelling.

Neil's latest tv show, the Republic of Telly is due to air on October 26 2009, RTE 2 9.55pm.

Neil Delamere is beginning to emerge as a contender, his sweet, faux-naive style a refreshing contrast... the rising star of Irish comedy, a wryly brilliant live performer.
(Sunday Times)

No TV camera could accurately measure the lightning speed of Delamere's wit
(Irish Times)

His material, too, comes from genuinely unexpected directions, with a fertile mind making surprising, and very funny, connections to keep you on your toes
