The US-Ireland Alliance has said Irish actor Domhnall Gleeson will be honoured with an Oscar Wilde Award at the March 12th event next year.

The annual party will again be held at The Ebell of Los Angeles.

It was previously announced that actress Maura Tierney will also be honored and Irish singer, Dave Lofts, will perform at what will be the 20th anniversary of event.

US-Ireland Alliance president, Trina Vargo, said: “I first saw Domhnall in 2006 when he played the role of Davey in Martin McDonagh’s play The Lieutenant of Inishmore.

"His talent was obvious 20 years ago, it’s been a pleasure to watch him go from strength to strength, and we look forward to honoring him.”
