COVID SAFETY

We look forward to welcoming you to Galway Theatre Festival 2023!

The health and safety of our audience, artists, festival team and wider community remains of paramount importance. The normal industry standards of safety for our audience, staff, and artists will apply, including safe entrance and egress from venues and set up of venues to ensure an enjoyable and inclusive experience for all involved. 

At the time of publication, the use of face masks in theatres is no longer mandatory. Patrons who wish to continue to wear face masks are more than welcome to do so, and we ask that patrons do not attend an event if they are experiencing symptoms of COVID-19. We will continue to have a number of low-key Covid-19 mitigation measures in all venues. Audience safety will remain our priority, and we will continue to observe current public health guidelines and adapt accordingly. We ask that you observe current public health guidelines, and if you are feeling unwell on the day of an event, we ask that you stay at home. 


We respectfully ask if you feel unwell or have been in contact with someone who is unwell, has traveled from abroad, and/or is isolating, to not attend any of our events. Please refer to HSE.ie for full public health advice on Covid-19 and contact our box office for a refund.
