“Racing in the City of Tribes”

This rebrand celebrates our unique place in Galway, 150 acres of green space just moments from the city centre, surrounded by thriving businesses and a community that has always supported us 🙌

It’s a modern expression of who we are, a festival that blends world‑class racing with culture, connection, and unforgettable moments. Guided by our core values; Respect, Community, Culture, Innovation, Excellence, and a deep Love of Horse Racing 🏇✨

As we look ahead to the 157th Summer Festival in 2026, we’re embracing the future with pride, purpose, and excitement.
Here’s to many more years of Racing in the City of Tribes 🐎❤️
