It's quite the line-up
Focus Ireland CEO Pat Dennigan echoed Lyra's comments, adding that it is"really shocking" to see that homelessness has shot up 30% in the last year.“Most lost their homes in the rental sector due to rocketing rents, landlords leaving the market, and the pressure due to the rising cost of living crisis," Dennigan added.
"Events like Rock Against Homelessness - which has raised a much-needed €170,000 for Focus since the first concert in 2016 - help to bring hope to people while also raising funds so Focus Ireland can support people while they are homeless and help them to eventually secure a home. "This major event also brings hope to people who are homeless as it shows them that people care about them and want to help.”
Tickets for Rock Against Homelessness will cost €27.00, with online booking subject to a 12.5% service charge. They go on sale on Friday, 24 February at 9am from Ticketmaster.ie.
