Buskers are Connacht Clan's Official Events bar!

Busker Brownes have been announced as the official events bar of The Connacht Clan.

The have agreed to put on a great show for all the Connacht Rugby fans who cannot get tickets to our HEC games or the inter-pros. They will be showing all of Connacht televised matches live in the bar, starting with the Scarlets this weekend. For the big matches they are organising nibbles, flags, whiskey tasting and more!

They have the biggest screen in Galway and they will be utilising it to make sure that those who cannot get into the SG for the big matches will still have a place to go to soak in some brilliant atmosphere! The upper floor of the Slate House (a.k.a. The Hall) will be THE home away from home for ticketless Connacht Rugby fans.  ;D

Well I just hope that we give them some good business so that they can continue to support the Connacht Clan (and Connacht Rugby.. .they sponsor three players!).

What about poor O'Connells? Are we about to instigate a bidding war?

• They got off their arses, went out and talked to their partners (Connemara whiskey being one), and came to us with a proposal
• They have a venue that is brilliant for watch BIG matches in with a LOT of people... ideal for all the fans who cannot make the trip or get tickets to experience a crowd atmosphere
• They are willing to put the work in to make these event "all about the fans"

Yep that is key for what we were thinking S_P. It has the venue that let's us hold great events. Not only that, but they have supported Connacht Rugby for ages themselves, and Terry and Brian (owner and manager) are both involved in Connemara All Blacks so they are not band-wagon jumpers either.

Corinthians too!!

Yeah, I've approached them about repeats of the games, but Saturday night of the Hallowe'en bank holiday weekend is a bit of a no-go. They have parties every night in there.
