Woodquay Hospitality Businesses wish to sincerely thank all those who helped in bringing about the fantastic 2026 Outdoor Summer Experience in Woodquay 🙏☀️
"Blessed with great weather, we were able to compete with the rest of town for Summer trade, this being vital to help us survive, create employment, and pay the many bills and rising costs involved these days in what is a very difficult industry."
"Míle Buíochas to all the locals and visitors that supported us during Galway Film Fleadh, Galway International Arts Festival, Galway Races, Galway United F.C. matches, an incredible year for Galway GAA, Galway Ladies Football, and Galway Camogie, while attending events at Town Hall Theatre Galway or Galway Rowing Club, and so many clubs and teams from all around the county and beyond who stopped into Woodquay, like Roscommon LGFA"
"Agus those that made it happen; Galway City Council, Ruairi Lehmann, Josie Forde, Mike Cubbard, Eddie H***e, and not forgetting the other local businesses for their neighbourly co-operation but most of all, muintir na h-áite - Woodquay’s local residence - go raibh míle maith agaibh!"
Summer Evenings in Woodquay were part of Galway City's Night-Time Economy Initiative, funded by Galway City Council and Department of Culture, Communications and Sport.
All of us here at This is Galway are already looking forward to next Summer in Woodquay, but in the meantime we'll be enjoying a Galway winter in some of the cosy pubs and restaurants of Woodquay.
