If there’s one place you’ll want to be between races, it’s out in An Púcán’s award-winning garden. Bursting with colour, covered in charm, and home to that iconic “GALWAY” sign, it’s the city’s ultimate garden. With the buzz of the crowd around you, the garden turns every day of Race Week into a celebration. Whether you’re toasting a win or just soaking in the atmosphere, there’s no better spot in town.
