In 2024 Galway City Council launched a new annual climate festival, the first of its kind organised by a local authority in Ireland. ‘Climate Inspirations-Communities in Action’ is an innovative, creative and collaborative festival which aims to change the narrative around climate action to one of positivity
The Community Climate Action Programme aims to support small and large communities to take climate action. The overall objective of the programme is to empower communities to shape and build low carbon, sustainable communities and to contribute to national climate and energy targets.

Galway City Council is inviting residents to a new series of Energy Efficiency Evenings taking place across the city throughout 2026. These free, community-focused events will give residents the opportunity to learn more about improving home energy performance, reducing energy bills, and discovering practical retrofit options.
Galway City Council has welcomed the announcement by Minister for Climate, Energy and the Environment, Darragh O'Brien TD, of €400,000 in funding for Galway City under the new €2 million ‘Cities Mission Accelerator’ Fund.
Galway City Council's award-winning Climate Inspirations Festival has been hailed a major success following five days of talks, music, workshops, exhibitions, and community events across Galway City.
