OMID DJALILI teams up with Tickets for Troops
OMID DJALILI has kindly teamed up with Tickets For Troops to give tickets to servicemen and women for his upcoming tour. Troops will have the opportunity to see the Time Out Award winner performing over 50 dates across the UK.
Tickets For Troops Chairman Lord Marland said: "We are
enormously grateful to Omid Djalili for his support of Tickets For
Troops. It makes a real difference to the troops who are doing such
an extraordinary job during these difficult times."
Tickets For Troops was set up in 2009 to provide members of the
Armed Forces with free tickets for major sporting events, theatre
performances, music concerts and cultural attractions. Since
launching it has been donated over 260,000 tickets and almost
100,000 troops have registered on the website
www.ticketsfortroops.org.uk.
Tickets For Troops has been supported by a wide range of
organisations and has been able to offer free tickets to a huge
number of high profile events; recently these have included tickets
for Iron Maiden concerts, Premier League football matches, and the
London Olympic and Paralympic Games.
Patron Joanna Lumley said: "This is a win-win arrangement: brave
and deserving troops get to see shows, concerts, fights and games
virtually free: and we in the world of entertainment and sport get
a chance to show them that we think they are the best of the best,
and support them with all our hearts. Fabulous!!"
