A heartwarming musical event is set to take center stage in Limerick, blending the power of music with a vital cause: supporting the River Angels, a group dedicated to safeguarding lives along the Shannon River.
The concert, aptly titled “Heavenly Tunes,” brings together local artists, choirs, and musicians in a night of melodic performances to raise awareness and funds for this life-saving initiative. Scheduled for this weekend at the Limerick City Hall, the event has already sparked significant community interest, with tickets nearly sold out.
The River Angels, a volunteer-based organization, patrols the banks of the Shannon, offering support and intervention to individuals in distress. Since its establishment, the group has saved countless lives and become a symbol of hope for many in the region.
He further mentioned that the people who arrange the musical event want the audiences to learn about the efforts that River Angels make and perhaps extend their support to them. ‘Music makes people join together and act’ said one of the event organizers. “We also pray that this concert does not only produce funds but also help foster the culture of togetherness when it comes to mental health in the community”.
Performers for the evening include renowned soprano Ciara Lynch, the Limerick Youth Orchestra, and the award-winning Shannon Harmony Choir. Attendees can look forward to a repertoire spanning classical pieces, contemporary hits, and heartfelt original compositions dedicated to the River Angels’ efforts.

Local businesses have also joined the cause, sponsoring the event and donating raffle prizes to further contribute to the fundraising effort. All proceeds from ticket sales and donations will go directly toward the River Angels’ operational costs, including equipment, training, and outreach programs.
For those unable to attend in person, the concert will be live-streamed, allowing supporters from across the globe to join in the celebration of music and community spirit.
As anticipation builds for “Heavenly Tunes,” the spotlight shines brightly on the River Angels and their unwavering dedication to Limerick’s most vulnerable. This harmonious collaboration is a testament to the city’s resilience and its commitment to protecting its people.
