Emer Maguire

Emer Maguire returns to Derry with her brand new stand-up show Perfectly Chaotic, following an incredible sold-out Grand Opera House show with Notions. This will be Emer’s biggest Derry show yet — taking over the iconic Millennium Forum on Saturday 5th December 2026 for one unforgettable night of comedy, music, and glorious mayhem.

Known for her powerful storytelling, lightning-fast wit, and hilariously irreverent musical interludes, Emer has cemented herself as one of Ireland’s most exciting comedic voices. She has sold out landmark venues including the Ulster Hall, Mandela Hall, and The MAC Belfast to rave reviews and roaring audiences. Recently named one of the top 10 new comic talents in the UK by Channel 4, Emer’s star continues to ascend sharply. She has also recently been commissioned by Channel 4 to write and star in sitcom Socially Awkward - a hilarious, heartfelt sitcom about her life as an autistic adult.

Perfectly Chaotic sees Emer dive into the beautiful mess of modern life — from questionable decisions to personal revelations, from daily disasters to the unexpected moments that shape us. Delivered with Emer’s trademark honesty, musical brilliance, and no-holds-barred humour, this show promises belly laughs, emotional whiplash, and more than a few moments of “I probably shouldn’t relate to this… but I absolutely do.”

A heartfelt, laugh-out-loud rollercoaster you won’t want to miss.
