The Californian-born actor, who commands $20m per film, is being honoured for his achievements in entertainment.
Ferrell's laugh-a-minute roles have earned him global movie stardom which began in 2003 with the hit comedy 'Elf', in which he played an oversized elf.
He won critical acclaim and a Golden Globe nomination for his role in 'Stranger Than Fiction' in 2006, where he played an IRS auditor who suddenly becomes the subject of an ongoing commentary only he can hear.
In 2007 he starred as a high profile ice skater in the comedy 'Blades of Glory'.
Ferrell has spent the past two weeks holidaying around Ireland.
