Donati is due on stage at eight o'clock for an hour and 45 minutes of performance, discussion and instruction, as well as a Q&A session.

Also on the night special offers including a Virgil Donati snare for only €299. RRP €499. One of the much-coveted snares will be raffled with proceeds going to Crumlin Children's Hospital.

Tickets are €15 from XMusic, Ballymount and more information is available here.
