How do I attend a workshop?

Workshops will be announced in early October. Please see individual workshop pages from this point for booking information. Browse our previous workshops here.

If coming with a group by bus, where can I drop off the group and park the bus?

Our primary venue is the Pálás (Palace) cinema, which is located just off the docks in Galway city. We recommend that incoming groups arrange to drop off and collect at the bus stop by Jury’s Inn (map) and walk down to the cinema. An alternative drop off point is located in the bus drop spaces on Merchants Road (map), slightly further from the cinema.

If we are organising an event in the Town Hall Theatre, it is possible to pull a bus up in front of the venue.

In either event, while the bus is waiting for the group, we recommend parking it in the Galway Cathedral bus parking spaces (map).

What other fun things can I do while I'm in Galway?

Galway is well-known for having all the sought-after qualities of a larger city while maintaining the virtues of a smaller country town. It makes the centre of the city easy to get around, and there are many fun and educational activities that can be done easily while you are visiting the city during our annual event.
