Hi Folks, Martin O’Donnell of Ballina, took the initiative to organise a fundraiser for the children of Palestine.

Musicians and friends from across Ballina and surrounds are coming together in solidarity, raising their voices and instruments to help fundraise for the children of Gaza in their hour of need.

On Friday, October 24th at 8PM, the Great National Hotel, Ballina will host ‘Gig for Gaza’, a special night of music and community spirit.

The lineup features:

• Bog Bodies (Dan & Ciara)

• Alder

• Padraic Collins

• Tommy Cooke

• Martin O’Donnell & Michael O’Rourke

• Hannah & Chuck Dunford

All proceeds from the event will go directly towards humanitarian aid for children in Palestine, with support channeled through Médecins Sans Frontières (Doctors Without Borders) and UNICEF.

This event is not just about music, it’s about compassion, unity, and standing together for those most in need. Join us for an evening of powerful performances, solidarity, and hope.
