A Festival Experience for All

Mayor of the City of Galway, Cllr Helen Ogbu, welcomed the announcement, saying, “Galway is a city shaped by sport, culture, and community.”
“Hosting a free big‑screen viewing of the All‑Ireland Final in the Heineken Big Top during Galway International Arts Festival brings these elements together in a straightforward way.”
