Galway City Council Night-Time Economy and Galway Arts Centre are excited to announce the launch of ‘’Thursday Lates,’’ a six-month pilot programme extending its opening hours to provide greater access to arts and culture in Galway City. Starting April 3rd, the centre will remain open every Thursday evening from 10 am to 9 pm, for a six-month period. This initiative directly aligns with feedback from consultations for the Galway City Night-Time Economy Action Plan 2024-2025, which highlighted the extension of cultural venue opening hours as a key priority for the community. It also aligns with the Night-Time Economy Taskforce recommendations and the Program for Government’s objective to promote later opening hours at cultural venues, offering flexible access for visitors and supporting the expansion of related services.
