Galway’s historic Druid Lane will come alive with voices, music, and stories on Saturday, August 23 as the city gathers to honour the life and legacy of Peadar O’Dowd, the beloved historian, author, and champion of Galway’s heritage.

Galway has always been a city of stories—tales whispered through stone walls, sung across the bay, and told beside fire and pub counter. But few told them as lovingly and thoroughly as Peadar O’Dowd. Historian, teacher, author, environmentalist, tour guide, columnist, and tireless ambassador for Galway’s past, Peadar passed away on January 4, 2024, leaving behind a city immeasurably richer for his life’s work and immeasurably poorer in his absence.

Galway songwriter, folk singer and community facilitator Mick Brown is releasing his first song this Friday November 11.
