Grassroots Venues Get New Funding

The government’s new Grassroots Venues Support Scheme is injecting one million euros into sixty local music venues nationwide, with five in Galway leading the charge—The Cornerstone, Róisín Dubh, and Monroe’s Live each getting €20,000, while Seven Bridgestreet and Mary Mullens Bar receive €15,000 and €8,000 respectively. This vital funding aims to sustain grassroots venues that incubate new talent and fuel community connection, with the program running until 2026 to build a stronger, more resilient live music future.
