The Script to play massive free stadium concert for frontline healthcare staff battling coronavirus pandemic

The Script have announced they will play a free massive show next year for heroic healthcare workers on the frontline battling the coronavirus pandemic.

The Irish stars will take to the stage in Dublin's 3Arena to play a show for HSE/NHS frontline staff and Primary Care workers including nurses, doctors, cleaners, porters and ambulance staff.

Each brave worker will be eligible for two free tickets to see the Breakeven hitmakers at the massive show on February 9, 2021.

Announcing the exciting news the band said in a joint statement: "We've always been huge supporters of those working on the frontline of our health care.

"They make sacrifices day in and day out, working harder than anyone. Not only to make sure we have access to resources in order for us to continue to live happy and healthy lives, but to also help us and our loved ones through some of the hardest points in our lives."

"The very least for us to do in order to give back to their amazing sacrifices during this pandemic is getting to put on a free show for 13,000 HSE and NHS staff at the 3Arena in Dublin.

"We can't thank them enough for their continued service to everyone, much more now than ever."

Ticket applications must only be made by the eligible frontline staff who must bring their valid staff ID card to the show, as ticket checks will be in operation.

Tickets will be available online only by heading here.

Applications will be open this Tuesday April 7, 2020 at 7pm.
