We are delighted to have won the 'Culture & Creativity Award' sponsored by Galway Culture Company and the 'Overall Business of the Year Award' at the Galway Chamber Business Awards 2023 in association with The Shannon Airport Group.

The awards, which took place at the Galway Bay Hotel on Friday 24 November, recognise organisations for their extraordinary achievements, exceptional talent and pioneering innovations.

It is the first time a cultural organisation has been recognised as the 'Business of the Year' by a Chamber Awards in Ireland.

As a children's charity that enlivens the city in October each year, we were blown away by this award and thrilled to be recognised amongst the business community of Galway and cultural organisations such as Gaillimh le Gaeilge and Music for Galway.

We are grateful for the support of the business and cultural community who all play a part in bringing our festival to life each October.
