Emer Maguire: Perfectly Chaotic at The Braid Ballymena

What to Expect

NI Comedy presents Emer Maguire’s stand-up show Perfectly Chaotic at The Braid Arts Centre in Ballymena on Friday 30 October 2026. Maguire has been named one of the UK’s top new comic talents by Channel 4 and is known for a musical-comedy style, blending sharp observational material with songs and audience interaction. Perfectly Chaotic is her current touring show, following sold-out dates at Belfast’s Waterfront Hall, and this Ballymena date brings the same set to a smaller, more intimate room at The Braid. Expect an energetic hour built around Maguire’s blend of stand-up and musical comedy, with the kind of chaotic, high-energy delivery that has made her a fast-rising name on the Northern Ireland comedy circuit.
