Shanahan opens Galway’soyster fest
The annual seafood extravaganza has become a real highlight of the city’s calendar in recent years, with upwards of 25,000 people expected to consume around 60,000 oysters, as well as 20,000 pints of Guinness, over the three- day festival.
The event is set to provide a welcome windfall for the local economy, and festival chairman Cian O’Broin was keen to emphasise the economic value of such a high-profile occasion.
