Some of Ireland’s best musical acts will perform on Grafton Street in Dublin on Saturday

All in aid of a very good cause.

Grafton Street will play host to a mini-festival this Saturday November 25 from 10am - 7pm as the Simon Music Marathon takes over. 18 Irish acts have banded together to raise funds to help deliver essential homeless services as the country struggles to deal with the crisis on the streets. Delorentos and The Strypes are just two of the top names lined up, with turns also expected from rising Dublin acts Fontaines, Floor Staff and Eoin Glackin.

The Dublin Simon Community provide services to over 5,100 people in Dublin, Kildare, Wicklow and Meath who are homeless or at risk of homelessness, and will be out in force collecting donations on the day.
