PICS: Major Irish celebs party in London raising over £250,000 for the London Irish Centre

Major Irish celebrities partied in London last night to raise funds for the London Irish Centre.

Over £250,000 was raised for the centre which helps Irish people in London.

The event saw performances from Ed Sheeran, who raffled off one of his guitars, and Lisa Hannigan.

Eoghan McDermott flew away from the Love Island villa in Marbella to party with Dermot O’Leary, Laura Whitmore, Angela Scanlon and Aisling Bea at the star-studded fundraiser.

Eoghan McDermott jetted over from Marbella, where he’s doing the voiceovers for the Australian Love Island, to attend the event.

He captioned photos and videos from the event, “Last night was something pretty special to be a small part of.”

“Ed Sheeran & Dermot O’Leary combined forces with The London Irish Centre in Camden and raised over a quarter of a million pounds (and counting) in one night for the Irish community in London.”

Last night was something pretty special to be a small part of. Ed Sheeran & Dermot O’Leary combined forces with The London Irish Centre in Camden and raised over a quarter of a million pounds (and counting) in one night for the Irish community in London. Had the pleasure of MCing the start of the evening before making way for the master! Spectacular effort from all the staff, volunteers, supporters and opening acts. Ed bid in the auction for his own guitar, which fetched £20,000… What a man! Thanks to @loveislandau for letting me record in London for the night that was in it and my old stomping ground @radiox for facilitating in the middle of the night. Special shoutout to @gary_dunne who will use that money to enrich the lives of the Irish abroad, young and old. Great times, great people. Quality dancing by @thewhitmore as always!
