A wonderful evening of music and song is being embraced with news that the Ormond Octaves Choir, with special guests, Music Generation Tipperary, will perform in concert at the Cathedral of the Assumption, Cathedral Street, Thurles, in just under 12 days’ time, on Friday, May 2nd, 2025.

Tipperary. The worthy cause, in this case, is the Thurles Cathedral Reroofing Fund, latter sadly having fallen into disrepair and is now leaking unto the ceiling plaster work, particularly during periods of high wind.
