Kilkenny's Cat Laughs is taking place this bank holiday weekend and if you're in the mood for some fun loving, laugh-a-minute craic, then the Marble City is definitely the place for you.
To make it easy for you - we've found the best of the line-up, (disclaimer: we have not included two sold out shows which make us weep with sadness) so make sure you soak up the sun with these mad hatters...
