Reggie from Blackrock Road is a fictional character created by humourist Pat Fitzpatrick. Reggie is portrayed as Ireland’s richest man and the President of COCI (Captains of Cork Industry), often seen broadcasting from his 6.8 million euro mansion on the Blackrock Road in Cork. He has gained a significant following on social media, attracting over 80,000 followers with his satirical videos mocking various figures and places, including Liz Truss, northsiders, Kerry people, and Kanturk.
Reggie’s character is a sharp, satirical commentary on high society and the social elite in Ireland. His humour resonates with audiences who appreciate his witty take on the cultural and social dynamics of Cork and beyond. His comedic persona has led to sell-out performances at the Everyman Theatre in Cork, followed by a successful nationwide tour titled “Reggie for President,” where he humorously declares his candidacy for the Irish presidency.
In addition to his live performances, Reggie is an accomplished event host, having acted as MC for numerous prestigious events. His clients include high-profile organizations such as Pendulum Summit, Boston Scientific, Marymount Ball, Howth Yacht Club, Irish Parking Association, Cork Chamber of Commerce, and the International Society for Pharmaceutical Engineering. His engaging and humorous approach makes him a sought-after host for corporate and social events.
Pat Fitzpatrick, the creator of Reggie, has a background in journalism and comedy writing. He has authored several books, including “101 Reasons Why Cork is Better than Dublin” and “No Sex, No Sleep,” a humorous take on parenting. Pat also contributes regularly to the Irish Examiner and the RTÉ Today Show, where he provides his comedic insights on entertainment and current affairs.
