The last few tickets are remaining for a massive night in support of the Repeal Project.

A Night in the Key of 8 is happening this Sunday, April 23, in the Olympia Theatre, and all proceeds go towards funding the Repeal Project. 

La Galaxie has just been announced as another amazing act on the night, along with David Gray, Mary Black, Neil Hannon, Camille O'Sullivan, Loah, Lisa O'Neill,Printer Clips featuring Paul Noonan and Guests, Roisin O and Wyvern Lingo.

They will be joined by contributions from drag artist Panti,  activist Ailbhe Smyth, writers Roisin Ingle and Una Mullally, and comedian Tara Flynn.

'I set up Repeal Project, with the intention of opening up a conversation around reproductive rights in Ireland, as I had become so disillusioned, upset and frustrated that every day up to 11 women were being failed by our State,' said Anna Cosgrove, Repeal Project founder.

'As an a-political outerwear initiative, that sought to give a very hidden issue more visibility, the project has encouraged women to come forward sharing their stories and is now acting as a much needed fundraising mechanism for organisations in need of funding.'

Tickets for the event are €28.50 including booking fee, and are available from Ticketmaster. 

As if the line-up wasn't great enough, the cause is one that supports and drives the visibility of women's rights in Ireland, and has tirelessly fought to secure body autonomy for Irish women.

Oh, and while we have you; don't forget to have your say in the inaugural SHEmazing Awards this May! It's time to vote, and you can do it right here!

Now that the dust has settled somewhat on the absolute Hunger Games of a morning that saw the entire country attempting to nab some Ed Sheeran tickets, the reactions to the sold-out gig are pouring in. 

Most people are pretty outraged by the fact that the tickets we're sold out at one minute past 10, and the scourge that is Seatwave is taunting fans further by selling pairs of tickets for as much as €1408.86. We're serious. 

We've compiled a lost of the best reactions that pretty much sum up this whole Ed Sheeran ticket scrum in 180 characters or less.

1. This guy who's mixing metaphors like a pro.

2.  This poor soul who jumped the gun and got car park tickets instead of actual tickets.

3. Seriously, where are the people who managed to get tickets?

4. Preach.

5. The struggle was real.

6. Looks like we all got the same security question.

7. The real fans are up in arms.

8. We'd definitely fork out for that!

9. Hear hear!

10. Ah here, this is beyond ridiculous..

It was an early start for many Ed Sheeran fans this morning, who peeled themselves out of bed at all hours to be in with a chance of grabbing some coveted tickets to the star's hotly anticipated gig.

For some, the journey actually began yesterday afternoon, as some fans started queuing almost 24 hours in advance.

Queues in Dublin at St Stephen's Green shopping centre stretched down the block, as hopeful ticket buyers huddled under blankets and umbrellas against the cold and rain.

Massive queues have been forming all over the country, after the red-haired singer  announced two dates in the 3 Arena this April. 

Take this as your public service announcement, the tickets for the destined to sell out gig go on sale at 10am, so if you aren't queuing outside, get those tabs open.

Having multiple devices on the go at once is also a good way to increase your chances of getting through to the site.

Also, make sure you already have a Ticketmaster account and are signed into it, so as soon as you can "view tickets" you can be brought straight through to selection and payment options. 

May the odds be ever in your favour.

Justin Bieber has enjoyed multiple sold out gigs in Dublin since he rose to fame in 2009 with his teeny bopper hit One Time.

The hit maker revealed brand new dates for his Purpose World Tour, coming to Dublin next summer.

After his sold out gigs in November, fans are taking no chances this time around and Dubliners have camped out all night in from of St Stephen's Green shopping centre in the hopes of getting tickets. 

Some hardcore fans have been there since yesterday afternoon and camped out in tents at the door of the shopping centre. 

The queue snaked all the way down King Street and fans tried to combat the torrential ran with umbrellas perched over their fold-up chairs and flasks of tea clasped in their gloved hands to ward off the cold. 

The crowd consisted mostly of teenage girls and Mammies, presumably hoping to nab the tickets as a trophy Christmas gift.

When asked why they decided to stay out all night in the hopes of getting tickets, one young fan told SHEmazing!: "Because he is the love of my entire life and I will support that man until my last breath."

Fingers crossed they all get a ticket!

The Late Late Toy Show is one of the nation's most beloved shows on TV.

We went from watching it as kids and picking out what we want from Santa, to watching it now with our mates and having a laugh over Tubber's jumpers.

And that time of year is rolling around pretty soon folks, so you might want to consider bagging a few tickets for the festive show.

Applications are open right now on the RTÉ website and all you have to is fill in a form and then wait to see if you got picked.

Follow the link here if you'd like to enter.

Good luck!

If you’ve ever witnessed a bad breakup, you’ll know that the weeks following a split can be a tad self-indulgent and always require the assistance of Ben & Jerry.

But as weeks turn into months, something incredible happens.

New dresses are bought, hair gets did, and slowly but surely the breakupee begins to show the breakuper exactly what they’re missing.

Well, that’s kind of the situation with Britain and Europe right now, as in the aftermath of Brexit the EU could be about to offer its young citizens one very big advantage over their British counterparts.

MEP’s have proposed giving EU citizens free InterRail tickets for their 18th birthdays in a bid to reignite enthusiasm for Europe.

But since Britain has voted itself out of the union, its teenagers will not be receiving the coveted passes which allow people under 26 to travel across the continent by train.

While it’s still very early days, the FreeInterrail campaign has been greeted with much enthusiasm by European parliament members and, of course, by the teens who could benefit from the initiative.

Did we mention we love Europe?

Whether you spent the weekend in a tent, at the office or watching the All Ireland Hurling Final, it’s likely you’ll be heading to work today with some major Monday blues.

But as the remains of the weekend’s Snapchat stories fade away for another week, we’ve learned that tickets for next year’s Electric Picnic festival are about to go on sale.

Okay so it might seem a little early to be making plans for next year – like most of us don’t know what we’re doing next week, never mind in 365 days time – but given the pre-EP ticket scramble that revellers have experienced in recent times, having Picnic tickets in advance mightn’t be the worst idea.

According to RTE.ie, passes for Electric Picnic 2017 will go on sale this Friday (September 9) at 9am.

Festival organisers say the event’s capacity will remain at 55,000 people as they don’t want it getting any bigger, but unfortunately for dedicated festival goers the price of loyalty tickets is set to increase by a fiver.

While there is still loads of time to prep for EP '17, we're sure there will be plenty of people looking forward to Friday.

Taylor Swift is just a really good person.

She doesn’t just treat fans to impressive social media shout-outs, or donate serious cash to charities, she also likes to give away free tickets to her concert.

Someone going to her Dublin gig tonight just got the best present ever.

Stephanie is from South Africa. She was supposed to be at Hyde Park yesterday to see Taylor and her ultimate girl squad perform. However, disaster struck and her flight was delayed from Amsterdam.

She tweeted about her disappointment, naturally.

Not all hope was lost though, as Taylor, who has admitted to trolling her fans social media activities, saw the tweet. She responded as any good performer would.

So then, all Stephanie had to do was get herself to Dublin. Which is easier said than done. But, have no fear, because as we know anything that involves T Swifty immediately turns to gold.

Stephanie managed to convince British Airways to change her flight, with the help of some fake tears, and now she’s Dublin bound.

Taylor’s history of thanking her fans with big gestures does include actual Irish fans too though.

Suzie Dickinson from Meath was given the chance to meet the popstar in person when Taylor saw her attempts to make it to as many of her European tour dates as possible.

Talking to the Mirror Suzie said “Basically I put a picture of a map on Tumblr which showed my route for going to Taylor’s concerts. Taylor follows me on Tumblr so I was hoping that she’d see it.”

Taylor did in fact see it, and was invited to a very special meet and greet at her concert in Glasgow. Suzie said Taylor was dying to get a photo with her and the two chatted about the most important of things;

“We just talked about cats and Dublin and she wanted to get a photo with me.”

This is why Taylor is one of our favourite celebrities.

Mark Prendergast and Steve Garrigan from Kodaline were out and about the other day when two crooks came up and offered them tickets to a Kodaline concert for a fiver. Worse still, there was no concert!

These crooks would want to brush up on their celebs if they’re going to be playing this game! What are the chances?

There is bad news for fans heading to Garth Brooks concerts at the end of the month as it has been revealed that Dublin City Council have only granted a licence for THREE out of the five gigs.

The news comes following a debate by local residents campaigning against the concerts on the grounds of a 2009 written agreement stating that only three concerts each year were to be held at the venue.

There has already been three concerts in Croke Park this year so far following One Direction last month.

The dates of which concerts have not been given a licence has not been revealed.
