The annual Croí Charity Ball will take place next month at The Galmont Hotel & Spa to raise money for this lifesaving charity.
The evening on Friday, March 20, will bring together healthcare professionals, community champions, supporters and corporate leaders for a spectacular black-tie event to raise funds in aid of heart disease and stroke prevention.
Building on more than three decades of incredible support, the Croí Charity Gala Ball continues to be one of the largest and longest-running charity gala events in the West of Ireland.
Funds raised on the night will directly support Croí’s life-changing prevention, rehabilitation and support programmes for those living with heart disease and the effects of stroke.
Guests will be welcomed with Guinness and Moran’s oysters, cocktail reception, followed by a sumptuous four-course gala dinner.
Entertainment on the evening will be led by renowned Irish Comedian, Bernard O’Shea, who will act as Master of Ceremonies, ensuring a night filled with laughter, warmth and energy.
Following dinner, guests can dance the night away with live entertainment and music into the early hours, making this a standout date in the Galway social calendar.
