The Maddy's Wish fundraising event will take place at Raymond Terrace's Clare Castle Hotel, kicking off at 12 noon with the guys from 'Cruz' who have volunteered their time and talents performing their rock classics.
Entry will be a gold coin donation at the door, which includes a sausage sandwich, and all proceeds will go towards Maddy's Wish - to experience the Harry Potter theme park in London and to visit Anime in Tokyo, Japan, before losing her eyesight.
Thirteen-year-old Maddy Atkins, from Raymond Terrace, lives with a one in three million genetic disorder bardet-bede syndrome (BBS) - a condition that affects many parts of the body including progressive visual impairment, obesity and kidney abnormalities - as well as nystagmus, body twitching and autism.
"We will have a kids area set up with colouring in competitions and the entertainment will continue throughout the afternoon," mum Melissa Budworth said.
The evening will conclude at 7pm with DJ Hushie performing.
