Activities
Festivals
Galway is recognised as the cultural heart of Ireland and with more festivals than you can imagine. Your experience outside the classroom is guaranteed to be as full as your experience inside the classroom.
While in GCI why not get involved? We encourage students to actively take part in festivals and have volunteer arrangements with the Galway Arts Festival, Macnas Parade and Salthill Community Arts Festival.
