Croí launches its Go Red Ball

Tickets are now on sale for the 2025 Croí Go Red Ball, one of the most popular fundraisers for the Galway-based Heart and Stroke charity.

"The Go Red Ball is a true celebration of community spirit and generosity," stated Mark O’Donnell, the Chief Executive of Croí.

"Every ticket purchased, and every sponsorship pledge helps us continue our life-changing work.”

The black-tie gala will take place on Friday, March 21 at the Galmont Hotel & Spa in Galway and begins at 6.30pm with a cocktail reception, followed by a four-course meal. There will be entertainment from comedian Barry Murphy as well as music and dancing.

Guests are encouraged to embrace the colour red—whether it’s a bold all-red ensemble or a subtle splash of colour with a scarf, tie, or accessory.

Individual tickets are available for €160, and tables accommodating eight to 12 guests can be also reserved. For ticket and sponsorship information christine@croi.ie.
