Heaven for anyone that loves Tayto and Coppers.
Brian O’Driscoll and Gordon D’arcy. Ted and Dougal. Gay Byrne and Dustin. Podge and Rodge. Zig and Zag. Biddy and Miley.
All iconic duos in Irish history but they might have to make room at the top of the list because Coppers and Tayto are combining for one night that’s bound to be very popular.
To celebrate 65 years in the market, Mr. Tayto is launching National Tayto Day on Friday 14 June and to mark the date, Copper Face Jacks will close its doors and host an exclusive party for Mr. Tayto and of his fans.
Running from 7 – 10pm, the party will feature some well-known Irish music talent with the likes of Soulé, Chasing Abbey, and Walking On Cars all playing.
If that wasn’t enough of a draw, Marty Whelan is MCing the whole thing and he’ll also be playing a few tunes.
Tickets cost €10 plus booking fee and all the proceeds are being donated to Dublin Simon Community.
Speaking about the event, Fionn Faherty from Dublin Simon Community has said:
“On behalf of Dublin Simon Community and the people who rely on our services we would like to thank Tayto, their customers and everyone involved for choosing to support us at this fantastic event.
“Your support will help provide vital services to people who are facing homelessness. As we continue to see people turning to us for help, your kindness will help people to rebuild their lives, enabling them to move to a safe and secure place they can call home.”
