Daniel Connell

Daniel Connell could easily be described as the ideal Aussie comedian; affable, loveable and hilarious. His observational, dry, often unanticipated comedy has seen him take to stages all over Australia. Daniel has also performed in India, Malaysia, Singapore, Hong Kong, and Scotland.

Driven to further his career in comedy, Daniel moved to Melbourne in 2010 and quickly established himself in the local scene. In 2011 he performed in ‘The Comedy Zone’ at the Melbourne International Comedy Festival (MICF), a line-up show of up and coming Australian comedians, hand picked by the festival.

Since then Daniel has performed a brand new hour of stand-up at 10 consecutive Melbourne International Comedy Festivals. He has also taken each show to every major Australian festival.

In the past few years Daniel has made several TV appearances, performing on the MICF Oxfam Gala (2017,2019 & 2021), Comedy Up Late (2018), and the Opening Night Comedy Allstars Supershow (2022).

In 2022 Daniel took off on his first national tour, taking his sell-out show ‘Gutless Wonder’ right around Australia.

In 2023 Daniel takes his new show ‘I’m Always Sore’ to every major Australian festival, and on a national tour.

One of the most active stand-up comedians in Australia, Daniel can be seen at comedy venues across the country all year round.
