Holiday World Show 2026 has partnered with Evan’s World of Wonder Fund as part of charity Oscar’s Kids, a charity that provides supports for children and their families navigating a childhood cancer diagnosis.
Oscar’s Kids was created by Yavanna and Lar Keogh in honour of their son Oscar who was diagnosed with terminal brain cancer in January 2018 and who sadly passed away in July 2019. Their charity was inspired by the enormous support and kindness they received during this time, and its mission is guided by the immense joy, bravery, and magic that Oscar brought to their everyday lives.
Evan’s World of Wonder Fund is a special fundraiser by Oscar’s Kids held in loving memory to Evan Doyle. Evan was a bright, curious boy whose sense of wonder and love for adventure continues to inspire everyone who knew him.
Speaking about the partnership, Oscar’s Kids commented: “Oscar’s Kids are so incredibly grateful to be the chosen charity for the Holiday World Show 2026. This is such an exciting opportunity for our charity to be involved with this annual event for holidaymakers. A key support we offer to our families is the opportunity to make memories through holiday’s both within and outside of Ireland, as often as we can give them as a form of escapism and fun.”
Maria Hourican, CEO of Holiday World Show, said: “We are honoured to be partnering with Oscar’s Kids for this year’s Holiday World Show. Oscar’s Kids provides invaluable supports for children and their families, and we are delighted to be a part of this. One of their many supports focuses on giving families the opportunity to enjoy holidays together. Holiday World Show is what dreams are made of, and that is what Oscar’s Kids aims to bring to the lives of children and their families.”
Like all charities, Oscar’s Kids is reliant on the generosity of donors in order to provide these important supports. All donations are welcomed, and can be made through the charity’s idonate webpage www.idonate.ie
Holiday World Show takes place from 23rd to 25th January 2026 in RDS Simmonscourt Dublin. For more information about their partnership with Oscar’s Kids please visit www.holidayworldshow.com
