A message from our Chairman, Tony: ⭐️ WHAT A NIGHT⭐️⭐️ WHAT A COMMUNITY⭐️ Lip Sync 24 was a very special night full of magical moments! There are so many people involved in bringing a show like this to life. Firstly and most importantly, thank you to our contestants. Every single one of them worked tirelessly fundraising, practising routines and getting costumes together. We hope you all had fun on your Lip Sync Journey, you gave us all huge entertainment! Huge thanks to our main sponsors - The Village Bar, Rathgormack and Seanie Power, and to the over 150 companies and individuals that sponsored the various acts. Your support is greatly appreciated.The multi-talented Richie Nugent, in his sparkly jacket was a wonderful MC for our Lip Sync Battle, he kept the show flowing and even sang a tune or two! Our judges Katie O Hanlon, Fiona Hennessy and Fergus Power brought the glamour and had the tough job of choosing a winner, many thanks to them all. Thanks to Henry Fitzgerald, our choreographer, for doing a wonderful job. The lighting and sound team led by Dirk Baumann did an amazing job. The ballroom looked amazing thanks to the talent and creativity of Fiona and Loren of Mahon Flowers. Thanks also to John and Liz Nallen and staff of the Minella Hotel for a beautiful venue and their co-operation. Huge thanks to all our committee for their hard work and commitment. One person deserves special mention for the titanic amount of work she did for this event, Claire Bolger, we simply couldn’t have done it without her.
