The concert promises an evening of love songs and moving duets set to the backdrop of candlelight in what is one of the country's most iconic venues.
Speaking ahead of the concert, Eve said: “People were truly blown away by the duets and the atmosphere in Saint Mary’s Cathedral last year.
“It was just magical by candlelight. This time, we’ve added even more duets to the programme, and yes, you can expect some brand new singing dresses too.”
Eve will be joined on the night by her ensemble, Fiona Linnane (piano) and Anna Jane Ryan (violin).
Tenor Eoin Hynes will also join on the night as a special guest and himself and Eve will perform a moving selection of romantic duets.
Lyric FM broadcaster and guest presenter Shirley Keane will act as MC for the concert.
The programme will feature a carefully curated mix of nostalgic and love-themed favourites including The Power of Love, My Funny Valentine, Quando m’en vo, Nessun Dorma, and more.
There will also be a performance of Falling Slowly, All I Ask of You, The Prayer and other well-known hits.
On Saturday, February 14, the concert runs from 8pm to 10pm with a short interval.
Tickets are €27.50 (including booking fee) and they are available from www.evestafford.ie.
