TRAD MUSIC AND ACOUSTIC SESSIONS EVERY DAY WITH LEGENDARY LIVE BANDS EVERY WEEKEND
An Púcán is your go‑to venue for world‑class traditional and acoustic sessions 7 nights a week. Galway—Ireland’s cultural heart breathes music day and night, from street buskers to buzzing pub gigs. We’re proud to be at the centre of it all. Whether you’re after the soulful sounds of acoustic melodies or the pulse of a full trad session, An Púcán is your one-stop spot for live music seven nights a week.

Daily Trad & Acoustic Sessions
Every evening in our Front Bar, we kick off with a traditional Irish music session—fiddles, flutes, bodhráns and plenty of clapping along. Then we ease into something a bit smoother with acoustic sets from some of Galway’s finest local musicians. It’s the perfect combo: a real Irish welcome, a cold pint in your hand, and music that’ll lift your spirits.
Weekends in the Back Bar
if it’s a proper party you’re after, Friday and Saturday nights in our Back Bar are where the craic really takes off. We’ve got live cover bands belting out the bangers and DJs keeping the dance floor hopping till 2am. Whether you’re celebrating something big or just don’t want the night to end, we’ll keep the good vibes going ‘til the lights come up.


Trad Mondays
Join us every Monday from 6pm as Trad West take to the stage at An Púcán, bringing their high-energy take on traditional Irish music to life. Whether you’re a local looking to kick off your week with some good vibes, or a visitor searching for that true Irish experience – Monday nights with Trad West are not to be missed.
