Town Hall Theatre , Galway 26th January 2017 -  Telling the story of the late Mike Arrigan's musical life, featuring music of the 70's 80's 90's and 00's performed by Galway's Best Musicians and Bands. A high energy musical show with emphasis on rhythmic percussion.

Smarter standup: a variety night where researchers become comedians and you can furrow your brow before laughing your face off.

"The demonstration, called by the Union of Students in Ireland (USI), took place with the backing of dozens of community, educational and grass-roots based organisations.

Despite conservative estimates of an attendance of 5,000 prior to the event, well over twice that figure took part in a procession which wound down O’Connell Street towards Government Buildings where protesters were addressed by a number of speakers.

Student bodies from Galway, Limerick, Cork, Sligo, Carlow and all the main Dublin colleges were represented as they heard organisers warn of the dangers of implementing an income-contingent student loan system similar to that which currently operates in the UK."
