A special concert will take place in Salthill next weekend to raise funds for victims of the recent earthquake in Türkiye & Syria.
The Big Gig will feature Kíla, Mary Coughlan, Sharon Shannon, Liam O’Maonlai & friends, Tracy Bruen, Ultan Conlon, Susan O’Neill, Frances Black, Mundy & MC Hector.
The concert will take place in Leisureland, Salthill next Saturday, February 25.
After hearing Anne O’Rourke on RTE News speaking from a TIAFI Syrian refugee camp, singer Mary Coughlan decided she needed to do something and this is how The Big Gig came about.
“I’ve been talking to Anne every day since and it’s getting worse at the TIAFA camp. Everyone involved is giving their services for this concert for free. Please support it”
