Pupils Perform For Air Ambulance NI
School pupils in Lisburn will take to the stage with an evening of music next month to raise money for the Air Ambulance Northern Ireland.
Students at Wallace High School and Pond Park Primary School are gearing up for the display on Tuesday 04 February. There will be a mix of music styles throughout the evening, from classical to popular music from soloists, choirs and orchestral ensembles.
Tickets will be priced at £10 per adult and £5 per concession, with all funds raised going to Mayor Councillor Alan Givan's chosen charity.
Welcoming the event, Mayor Givan said: "It will be a fantastic evening as the pupils and their teachers have created a repertoire of musical delights themed around flight. I am sure you will agree this is a very fitting theme as each time Air Ambulance NI gets a call to offer emergency assistance it must take flight from Maze Long Kesh to reach anywhere in Northern Ireland within 25 minutes.
"This is an evening where everyone will leave feeling better for supporting both local pupils and a local charity to ensure that every single day when one individual finds themselves in need of assistance from AANI that it has the funding to reach them. I would encourage you all to get your tickets now and support this very worthy cause."
Tickets are available from the Box Office at Lagan Valley Island by calling 028 9250 9292 or booking online.
