Hant at Monroe's Live

What to Expect

Hant open Monroe’s October programme with a Friday night show on 2 October 2026, doors at 7:00 PM. The early door time is worth noting: it is two hours ahead of the venue’s typical weekend start, so the set runs early in the evening rather than late.

Monroe’s Live is the purpose-built music room beside Monroe’s Tavern on Dominick Street Upper in Galway’s West End. It is a standing venue with a raised stage and bar service to the side, holding a few hundred people. October is one of the fuller months in the Monroe’s calendar, taking in Camille O’Sullivan, a Coldplay tribute, Kris Drever, Daoiri Farrell and a run of tribute nights across the Halloween weekend, so this show sits at the front of a busy month. The date and door time here are taken from the venue’s own published gig listing, which does not carry a ticket price for this show.

Getting There

Monroe’s is on Dominick Street Upper in the West End, about a ten-minute walk from Eyre Square across the Wolfe Tone Bridge and up Dominick Street Lower. Drivers coming into the city on the N6 should use the Fairgreen or Jury’s Inn multi-storey car parks and walk in, as parking near the venue is limited on a Friday evening. City bus services on Fr Griffin Road and Dominick Street stop a minute or two from the door, and Galway Ceannt railway and bus station is roughly fifteen minutes away on foot.
