Blas Na Bealtaine – A Taste of May Food Festival in Galway

The Galway Food Festival is being revived as part of the ‘Blas Na Gaillimhe – A Taste of Galway’ network of food organisations that recognise the distinctive hospitality that Galway provides all year long, with special events planned for the month of May.


In collaboration with Galway City and Galway County Council, ;Blas na Bealtaine’ – A Taste of May, will be a month-long celebration where the Blas Na Gaillimhe – A Taste of Galway network will deliver an exciting program of events and experiences to highlight the thriving food and drink scene in the city and county.

Theatrical performances, oyster samples, farm tours, cheese-making demonstrations, seafood trails, distillery visits, foraging, beer masterclasses, coffee cupping, wine pairings, theatre, music, and much more await visitors.

Celebrating the best from Galway food producers

This new Galway Food Festival, is expected to be the west’s premier food festival and will celebrate the city and county’s culinary landscape, showcasing the people, produce, and passion that have firmly established Galway as the food capital of the west.

What to expect at the new food festival

The festival is expected to offer an engaging programme of talks, top class workshops, tours, and in-house events, all of which will encourage people to reconnect with where their food comes from, and learning more about what nature can provide for us and how we can connect to our communities by developing the relationship between food and culture.

Expect an exciting range of cookery demonstrations to be presented by an impressive line-up of top chefs from Galway restaurants such as Aniar, Kai, The Kings Head and more.

There will be lots of entertainment for children too with fun, interactive, educational workshops for children which see young people engaging in a number of food related activities. Also expect a popular selection of food tours is likely to involve Galway Food Tours, Jp McMahon, the Beechlawn Organic Open Farm Tour, and possibly a Galway Vegan Food Tour.
