Galway live entertainment & events
The Western Bar, Galway, just off Eyre Square, is the traditional irish pub the local Galweigans themselves choose when they want a great pint and a convenient city centre venue for a wide variety of live music and genuine traditional Irish entertainment to suit all tastes, all year round. If you're looking for something a bit more authentic than some of the fake 'oirish' venues in Galway, then the Western bar is your must visit destination!
