A host of drag performers, burlesque artists and comedians are set to take over The Sugar Club tomorrow night, November 26, for Grá for Gaza, a fundraising gig in aid of Children Not Numbers.
Children Not Numbers is an aid organisation that is working on the ground in Gaza, providing immediate support, long-term rehabilitation and sustainable solutions to the children of Gaza.
The gig kicks off at 7.30pm, and Dublin drag king Phil T. Gorgeous will be on hosting duties for an evening of entertainment and purpose.
The stellar lineup features the crème de la crème of Ireland’s performers. Dublin’s dancing diva, Regina George, joined by her queens, will bring a show-stopping performance to The Sugar Club, while beloved comedy icons Katherine Lynch and Breda Larkin will deliver some serious belly laughs. Theatrical singer Truly DiVine is set to light up Grá for Gaza with her signature jazzy vocals, while Hoopixie will reach new heights with her dazzling aerial act.

Lovers of cabaret, meanwhile, can look forward to mesmerising performances from Bonnie Boux, Azaria Starfire, Bella Curve and lots, lots more.
Grá for Gaza is set to be a full-throttle celebration of compassion, unity and art, but crucially, it will raise vital funds that will go directly towards aid for children in Palestine.
Last month, UNICEF estimated that 64,000 children have been killed or injured in Gaza since October 2023. Save the Children, meanwhile, reported that throughout 2024, an average of 475 Palestinian children suffered “lifelong disabilities” each month, including burns and traumatic brain injuries.
All proceeds raised from Grá for Gaza will go directly to Children Not Numbers as they continue to provide crucial aid for young people in Gaza. Tickets cost €15, and they can be purchased through The Sugar Club’s website via this link.
