Highlights of the evening included a sensational Lion King performance and cameos from the likes of Kellie Harrington and Ed Sheeran. On top of that, the evening saw the public raise over €5 million for children's charities through the Toy Show Appeal. Viewers raised well over €3 million on the night, and donations continued to pour in after the show. Revolut's co-founder then donated a further €100,000 and pledged to match donations.
