there is live music, striking fashion,
world-famous Irish hospitality, and the
even more famous Irish banter. After
racing it is imperative that you head to
Shop Street in the heart of Galway for
a taste of Guinness at one of the pubs
adorning the street to round off your
visit.
The Galway Festival combines racing
with an electric atmosphere, summer
vibes, and general fun for all ages. There
are many hospitality options available
throughout the week for groups of all
sizes and spectrums, however, booking
early is a must due to the popularity
of the week. If you want to immerse
yourself in Irish racing heritage, then
the Galway Festival is for you. To quote
The Dubliners, one of Ireland's most
renowned traditional music bands, "It's
there you'll see the jockeys and they're
mounted out so stately. The pink, the
blue, the orange and green – the emblem
of our nation."
