In February 2014 Galway has was crowned Europe’s Micro city of the Year by the Financial Times. Known for its festivals, music and bars, the city is a vibrant, fun-loving city. Conveniently, history and leisure combine here: the pubs, many of which retain their original, huge fireplaces and other Gothic features, are the best place to get a feel for the medieval city. As the capital of the Gaelic West – it’s the only city in the country where you might possibly hear Irish spoken on the streets. Galway is the only coastal city in Ireland that really seems to open up to the sea, and its docks sit side by side the compact city centre, as you’re constantly reminded by salty breezes and seagulls. The jewel in the city’s crown, the long, pedestrianised main drag of William, Shop, High and Quay Streets, becomes a lively, Mediterranean-style promenade during summer, lined with pub and restaurant tables.

Review of Galway's Culture 21
REVIEW OF GALWAY’S CULTURE 21: ACTIONS SELF-ASSESSMENT MAY 2016 This document provides an overview of the discussions that emerged in response to the Culture 21: Actions Self-Assessment conducted throughout a day-long workshop, hosted in Galway on the 6th April 2016. The workshop followed on a public event, attended by over eighty local stakeholders, including presentations by Jordi Pascual, Clymene Christoforou, Catherine Cullen and Dr Beatriz Garcia. These presentations provided; a background on the vision and ambitions behind Culture 21 Actions (Jordi Pascual); the role of Culture Action Europe (Clymene Christoforou); the experience and legacy of Lille as host of the 2004 European Capital of Culture (Catherine Cullen ); and the experience of Liverpool as 2008 European Capital of Culture (Dr Beatriz Garcia). The exercise took place in the context of the initial workshop of the Pilot Cities Europe programme in Galway and was meant to inform the design of a work programme which, in 2016 and 2017, will enable the city to address some of the weaknesses identified and build on its perceived strengths. As suggested by the Terms of Reference of the Pilot Cities Europe programme, the initial workshop involved a diverse group of participants, including representatives of different areas of local government, civil society activists and private organisations. A full list of participants has been included in Annex 1. In the course of the workshop, participants evaluated Galway’s current status as regards the nine ‘Commitments’ or thematic areas that make up Culture 21 Actions. The exercise also enables cities to compare their assessment with the average ratings provided by a global panel of experts, which assessed the situation of the items included in Culture 21 Actions in mid-2015.

2019 Welcome
2019 WELCOME WELCOME TO 150 YEARS OF THE GALWAY RACES 2019 is a very special year for us here in Ballybrit. For a century and a half, people from the greater Galway area, across Ireland and around the world have been coming here in their tens of thousands to enjoy “the sport of kings, in the city of the tribes, at the Festival of the year”. It’s only right, at this point, that we tip our hat to Lord St Lawrence, who organised the very first race meeting here back in 1869 and to all those owners, trainers, jockeys, spectators and local businesses that have since contributed to the remarkable popularity and success of our Festival. We can just imagine the spectacle, the colour and the excitement of 40,000 people descending on Ballybrit for two days in August 1869. There were four events each day, the feature race being the inaugural Galway Plate. A handsome 100 sovereign prize tempted entrants to tackle its challenging 2½ miles and to face its eight fences, two of which were stone walls. Clearly, not a contest for the faint-hearted. Today, Galway is rightly regarded as one of the world’s greatest race meetings. There is nowhere like it for atmosphere, style, entertainment and hospitality. Add in the superb racing, well it’s enough to make your hair stand on end! We look forward to seeing you in July. Thank you for your continued support. Michael Moloney General Manager The Galway Races has had a long and exciting history and has become what is now The Galway Races are a state of mind.

Of late, however, the festival has suffered from decreased government expenditures on the arts—as have all the arts in Ireland. Recent festivals have been far more subdued than the extravagant Millennial Festival in , during which the city teemed with outdoor events and more than one hundred thousand people gathered to watch the nighttime Macnas parade and ﬁreworks. The Twenty-Sixth Annual Galway Arts Festival, July –, , was wet— so wet, in fact, that some outdoor events had to be canceled. The entire event was a bit more restrained than in years past, owing largely to the lack of a Mac- nas parade. The parade, which normally provides focus and a reason for peo- ple to be outside, also tends to bring with it a magical charm for good weather.
