To further tie the festival to traditional Irish culture, it was shot in three iconic and historical locations: the Viking Theatre in Dublin, the Druid Theatre in Galway and Glenveagh Castle in Donegal.

from the city into the performance to showcase the city to the world.”

Ruairi Lehmann, Tourism Officer - Galway City Council

“Sláinte Festival is a great idea and a really interesting platform, with its own unique twist, for promoting Irish music, art and culture. The top-class production quality on their work so far speaks for itself. It was a joy to be a part of and on top of everything, as an artist, I can use the professional performance footage as a tool to further promote my music in the future. Sláinte Festival is brilliant and long may it run.”
