The eyes of the racing world are on Galway this week, as attendance figures are eagerly awaited by many involved in the industry. Almost 117,000 people attended over the seven days in 2022, and any decrease on this figure for the 2023 festival would be in contrast to overall attendance figures at race meetings for the first six months of this year. Statistics released recently by Horse Racing Ireland show a 7.6% increase in attendances for the first half of 2023, compared to the same period in 2022.

Galway Racecourse will be jam-packed this weekend, but with horses of a different kind. There will be tens of thousands of horsepower on display as classic and vintage cars, tractors, motorcycles, commercials and even steam engines converge from the 32 counties of Ireland to be part of Classic Fest 2023. Back for a second year following its instant success last year, Classic Fest has already become a must-attend show for lovers of all things vintage and classic. Over 25 classic car clubs are travelling to the event from Donegal to Cork and Kerry to Carlow, so almost every county will be represented in Galway Racecourse this Sunday.
