Our historic campus, dating back to 1845, has grown massively in size and reputation since then, with a student population today of over 19,000. Over the past decade, we have been steadily increasing our global reach and reputation. According to QS World University Rankings, we are now ranked in the top 2% of universities worldwide and the top 100 universities in Europe. Ranked Ireland's #1 university for sustainable development in the Times Higher Education World Rankings (THE), we're not just about excellence in teaching; we're about shaping a better world. Picturesque grounds, state-of-the-art facilities, excellent accommodation, a choice of restaurants and first-class recreational amenities add to the attractiveness of University of Galway as a conference and event venue in Galway city.

The venue can also be subdivided into three independent soundproof venues, all with blackout facilities, state-of-the-art AV specifications and mobile staging to allow for multi-purpose set-ups. In addition to the Bailey Allen Hall, there is also a choice of over 100 other venues within the University including 27 tiered lecture theatres to accommodate from 70 to 360 delegates, a range of boardrooms & classrooms to accommodate from 5 to 100 delegates and extensive exhibition spaces adjacent to many of our venues.
