Experience a Gaelic Games session at a local GAA Club called "Liam Mellows", located a short bus/taxi journey from Galway City Centre. Our modern facility includes a dedicated visitor centre. The 402 Bus stops only 500 metres from the club. Sessions start with an introduction to what are known locally as "Gaelic Games". This includes history of the games, their revered place to life in Ireland and how the games are structured/played. You’ll see video clips, Irish passion for GAA and will generally just have the craic. Following the engaging introduction, it is out to the astro pitch, where you'll partake in gentle team building activities of Gaelic Football and Hurling. You’ll need flat footwear and a willingness to have fun. Casual clothing is preferable. Bring sporting attire if you'll get competitive. There is water, tea/coffee available. If you wish to use our on-site dressing rooms/showers, please bring your own towels/toiletries. Interaction makes the event: our trainers are great; they are passionate about their beloved games and really interact with visitors. Depending on the group you most likely play mini-matches - all in good fun!

5.00We did this last week while in Galway and it was such a great experience!! Our guide was very knowledgeable and shared a lot of great information about both Hurling and Gaelic football. We were in a group of about 12 people. Our guide was friendly and patient with those of us in the group that were clearly not athletic! It was the perfect amount of instruction and time to practice the skills in both sports. We highly recommend this activity to anyone looking to immerse themselves in the world of Gaelic sports!!
So much fun!

5.00Stephen was a wonderful trainer, explaining the intricacies of G.A.A. while helping us have fun. We traveled with three young athletes and they had a blast learning Gaelic football and camogie! We were all laughing and playing together.
Fabulous fun!

5.00We booked a slot at Experience Gaelic Games in Aug 2025 as a family of 5, including 3 grown children. Our instructor was Steven, he was awesome! I can’t say enough great things about him. He’s very thorough, experienced, patient and talented. We enjoyed our visit! He accommodated all of our different skill levels. We were in a small group of only 2 families so there was plenty of space and time. We learned a lot about Gaelic Football and Hurling. We didn’t actually play a game, but we learned skills and played drills that were fun. Steven was awesome! Great value for a fun group excursion!
A wonderful experience...

5.00We loved our session with Stiofán/Stephen - he obviously sussed that we were sports-mad and competitive, so worked us hard, which was great! Apart from having great fun, we came away with a better understanding of Gaelic Games, and how important they are to Irish culture and identity - so much better than simply reading about it. We are now hooked - came home to England in time to watch the amazing Clare v Cork All-Ireland Hurling Final, and can't wait until next week's Football Final between Galway and Amagh!
