Hosted by Croí, the Heart & Stroke Charity, this year’s glamorous ‘Go Red’ black-tie gala was sponsored by Irish Life, with entertainment support from Signify Health.

Guests were welcomed with a drinks reception and appetisers before enjoying a four-course meal. Comedian Barry Murphy served as MC, keeping the crowd entertained, while the Hession School of Irish Dancing delivered a captivating performance. Later in the night, 90s tribute band Smash Hits had guests dancing into the early hours.

Croí extends its gratitude to the event’s generous raffle and table prize sponsors, as well as everyone who attended. Their support plays a vital role in the charity’s mission to fight heart disease and stroke.
