Shay Given and his fellow Newcastle United stars will once again strut their stuff on the catwalk on March 4, and Irish chart-toppers Westlife are also coming back for an evening that raises vital funds for charity.
This year's Fashion Kicks promises to be even bigger and better than previous events.
Fabulous fashion, food and fantastic entertainment will again be guaranteed - and celebrity chef Paul Rankin has also volunteered to join the Toon players on the catwalk!
Last year's Fashion Kicks raised over £200,000 for the Macmillan Cancer Tyneside Appeal, of which Shay Given is Patron. This year the Teenage Cancer Trust will also be a beneficeiry of this glittering affair.
Cruise Clothing will again provide the clothes for the Fashion Show which will preview spring/summer collections of Armani, Boss, Prada and D & G. Multi award winning Hooker & Young Hair Design will be making sure the models are suitably coiffeured to take to the catwalk.The event is being supported by Shay's Kit Sponsor, Brake Fresh Ideas.
The reappearance of Shay's big friends Westlife, who will be taking time out from their very busy schedule to make a special guest appearance, will also boost the show.
Shay said: "I'm really thrilled the players have again agreed to help me raise valuable funds for charity.
"We were all a little worried about taking to the Catwalk last year, but once we were up there, we all thoroughly enjoyed the experience and it's a great feeling to know we are contributing to something meaningful and helping others.
"I would also like to thank my wife Jane who is always willing to help with my charity work and without whose support, I would not have been able to organise this event."
Newcastle Chairman Chris Mort said; "Our players work tirelessly to help local charities, and I am delighted to see the players supporting Shay once again to raise funds for such worthy causes."
Nicky Byrne from "Westlife" said; "We are great friends with Shay and are all really excited about getting involved in the show.
"We can't wait to join up with Shay and the other players for what will be a fabulous evening."
Tickets for Fashion Kicks cost £1500 for a table of ten or £150 per person.
