An Evening of Music That Changes Lives - Purchase Tickets Today
There are nights out you enjoy, and then there are nights that stay with you for all the right reasons.
On September 19th, the Blackrock College Union Mission Fund is hosting a unique musical fundraiser in Jubilee Hall, an evening that combines exceptional live performance with a powerful purpose.
At the heart of the night is past pupil and international recording artist Paul Byrom. With a career spanning over three decades, eight studio albums, and a Billboard No.1 to his name, Byrom has performed on stages across the world. His shows are known not only for their musical excellence, but for their warmth, humour, and connection with the audience.
Expect a rich and varied programme, from West End favourites like You’ll Never Walk Alone to timeless Irish ballads such as The Island and Raglan Road, alongside well-loved classics that invite the audience to sing along. It is an evening designed to entertain, while also bringing people together.
That sense of togetherness is what makes this event truly meaningful.
The Mission Fund currently supports 69 students in Kenya in accessing secondary education, young people for whom schooling would otherwise be out of reach. This year alone, there are requests to support a further 60 students.
Every ticket purchased helps make that possible.
It is a reminder of the simple but profound truth captured by Nelson Mandela: “Education is the most powerful weapon which you can use to change the world.”
This is more than a concert. It is a chance to be part of something tangible, impactful, and hopeful.
If you are looking for an evening of great music, shared atmosphere, and real purpose, this is one not to miss.
Tickets are now available. Early booking is strongly encouraged to avoid disappointment.
