Fintan Harvey is a Claudy comedian bringing his new stand-up hour, Flightmares, to a hometown crowd at McKeevers Bar on Main Street. Standing close to 6’6” with a longstanding fear of heights - he took his first flight at 36 - Harvey builds the show around the things that make people sweat with fear, from extreme sports to bingo nights, played for laughs rather than sympathy.
This is a full stand-up show rather than a shared bill, described on the ticket page as “the hilarious new stand-up show from Claudy comedian Fintan Harvey”, running around two hours. Expect a hometown atmosphere - McKeevers is a local bar rather than a dedicated comedy venue, so the room will have the close, familiar feel of a village pub show, with plenty of local references likely given Harvey’s own Claudy roots. The material leans on genuinely personal territory (his fear of flying and heights) rather than generic observational comedy, which gives the hour a clear throughline. Harvey is also touring the show more widely - it plays the Millennium Forum Studio in Derry city on Friday 20 November 2026 at 8:30pm, for anyone who prefers a city-centre venue or misses the Claudy date.
Claudy is a village on the A6 between Derry and Dungiven, roughly 20 minutes’ drive from Derry city centre. McKeevers Bar is on the village’s Main Street, easy to find and with on-street parking nearby. There is no rail link to Claudy, so a car or taxi from Derry or Dungiven is the practical option for an evening show. There is more to see in Derry and across Co. Derry.
