Doors open at 7:00 p.m. on the night and tickets are £15.
Jennings, who has a 10-year-old daughter, was diagnosed with a brain tumor in 2003 and under went surgery in January 2004 to have it removed.
But the tumor returned and doctors say the only treatment now available is a proton beam therapy at a hospital in Boston. The cost is around £100,000 and is believed to offer a cure.
