The Gals Gig for Repeal is this Friday and it sounds UNREAL
The fight to secure bodily autonomy for Irish women has not died down since the success of the Strike 4 Repeal.
This Friday, the Repeal Project is bringing together their supporters for a Gals Gig for Repeal, the second event of its kind.
The event, which will be held in the Grand Social, will feature the Repeal Project founder Anna Cosgrave as MC, and she will be ushering to the stage a range of wonderful acts.

Musicians such as Orla Gartland, Girlfriend, Maija Sofia, Melina Malone, and Ruth Mac will be showcasing their musical prowess on the night.
Clara Rose Thornton will be on stage to perform a spoken word piece, and Laura Byrne will be on hand to portray her comedic talents.
The event will sit side-by-side with a popup exhibition on the theme of feminist resistance, which sounds amazing.
