The Blizzards, Director and Dirty Epics will take over Dublin’s Olympia on April 26 for the 2009 FM104 Help a Dublin Child gig in aid of Temple Street Children’s University Hospital.

The Hot Press Newsdesk, 21 Jan 2009

This is the third year of ‘The Gig’ following two previous sell outs, and more leading Irish acts are expected to be added to the bill.

Tickets for the show go on sale from Ticketmaster on Friday January 30 at 9am, priced €33.60 standing and €36.60 seated. All acts are performing free of charge, so that all proceeds can go to the appeal.

Commenting on the announcement, Dave Kelly, Programme Director FM104 said: “FM104 is absolutely delighted to be back in the Olympia to present another great night of music in aid of a Temple Street Children’s University Hospital, who do such amazing work for Irish children who become ill.

"FM104 is delighted to be involved in this special concert and raise some vital funds and generate some awareness of the great work they do. We have an amazing line up on the night – featuring the very best of Irish talent and we guarantee that all who do attend will have a great night. We will be announcing more acts over the coming weeks but be sure to get your tickets and avoid any disappointment.”
