DERMOT KENNEDY ANNOUNCES INTIMATE DUBLIN SHOW AT NATIONAL CONCERT HALL ON
21ST DECEMBER 2023 TO RAISE MONEY FOR LOCAL CHARITIES
Dermot Kennedy will be playing a special intimate acoustic performance at Dublin’s National Concert Hall on Thursday 21st December 2023 with all proceeds going to Barretstown and Pieta.
To raise money for the charities, tickets will only be available for this special show via a Raffle at this link.
Every Raffle entry will be 20 euros for a chance to win a pair of tickets for this special show.
All proceeds will go direct to the charities.
Platinum selling, BRIT nominated singer-songwriter Dermot Kennedy released his acclaimed #1 selling second album ‘Sonder’ earlier this year and has now amassed over 7 billion streams. His tour around the album saw him perform headline shows at the likes of New York’s Madison Square Garden and Colorado’s Red Rocks Amphitheatre, The O2 Arena London alongside headlining All Points East Festival and performing at Glastonbury Festival. Dermot’s 2023 will be closing with a 3 night stand at the Sydney Opera House Foreshore.
In Ireland this summer, Dermot Kennedy performed two sold out shows to 80,000 fans at Dublin’s Marlay Park and three sold out shows to more than 90,000 fans at Limerick’s Thomond Park - so his forthcoming show at the 1200-capacity National Concert Hall promises to be a special one-off intimate performance.
In 2021, Dermot played Christmas charity shows at the Dublin 3Arena and raised more than €250,000 for local Irish charities and this time has chosen the National Concert Hall for a special intimate acoustic performance.
Dermot: “This will be my last show in Ireland for a while so please give generously. I’m so excited to raise lots of money for these two great Irish charities with this special acoustic show.”
