Deirdre explained to RTE Entertainment what inspired her to organise the star-studded charity event and said, “Like everyone else, I was moved by the heart breaking images of people living incredibly tough lives around the world and at home, and so I decided I wanted to do something fun and useful that would raise a proper chunk of money.

“So I picked up my broken phone and asked my talented, funny friends to help. I was extremely happy when they all generously said, ‘Yes, sign me up.’

“Darren and I then approached 3Mobile/3Arena, 2FM and Comic Relief who were very happy to collaborate with us.

“So we have a killer line up, an incredible venue, a national holiday, a national radio station and a legendary charity partner.

“Now all we need is for the great Irish public to treat themselves to a brilliant night out,” she added.

Ticket for the gig go on sale this Friday February 10th from usual outlets and are priced €39.00 and €45.00 per ticket plus booking fee.
