LAST UPDATE | 28 Jun 2021
THERE ARE HOPES that this year’s Galway Festival will have 5,000 spectators per day in attendance.
Ballybrit will host the annual event from Monday, 26 July to Sunday, 1 August and while 145,000 fans were at the 2019 edition, it was forced to take place behind closed doors in 2020 due to the Covid-19 pandemic.
A crowd of 1,000 people returned to the Curragh for the Irish Derby Festival over the weekend, which was chosen as one of the country’s pilot test events.
This morning, Galway Festival organisers revealed their aim in a social media post.
“We’ve been working with Horse Racing Ireland and the Government to host 5,000 people each day outdoors for our Festival,” it reads. “This has not yet been confirmed, but be assured, we are working away in the background.
“Stay tuned. Thank you for your support.”

Legend !!
Is he retiring from international rugby after the World Cup ?
Yup
2 years ago after his back gave out I watched his come back for young Munster ..walked away that day thinking Big Paulie is done. .So Slow & average. .Well We All Know That’s Not How POC. Head Work’s. AN Insperational. Human being
We’ll be lucky to see his like again.
No!!! I can’t bring myself to read the articles!!
:( would he not stay another year and bring home the hat-trick of 6nations!!!! :(
We were lucky to see his likes…
Love Paul. I will miss him terribly in the Munster red and Ireland green, but Toulon……of all teams….they are killing rugby……
As much as I love the man, as long as Irish teams still play in the Champions cup I hope He never wins another one.
Toner is coming on leaps and bounds but will he be partnered by Tuohy?
