To demonstrate unity, there will be performances by Irish and Ukrainian artists, including special appearance by award winning singer/songwriter Don Mescall.
Irish traditional music will be performed by Martin Donohoe with his band.
And compositions performed by The National Ukrainian Choir of Ireland will also be heard.

We kindly ask everyone to come and support Ukrainians on this important day for us, to share with us the pain of loss, to help find a home again, to show solidarity and thus demonstrate that we all want peace in the world and people should no longer die from weapons.
