The Caribbean wasn't the only place pirates left their mark!
St Patrick was taken by pirates to Ireland, and 9th & 10th century pirates and
sea raiders on the Irish Sea were the inspiration for prayers and chants of
protection
The 17th century pirate queen, Granuaile, ruled the waters around Galway
and Mayo and we are even featuring some modern musical pirates.
Come and enjoy the fun in Galway City.
The theme is fun, the music will be special.
