Galway 5km Series 2026
The Galway 5km Series 2026 is a set of six timed 5 km races held on six Tuesdays in County Galway. The event carries an approved permit, certificate number 26/169, and marks twenty years of the series' no-frills racing format. Craughwell AC hosts the final leg.
Races take place at six different locations on consecutive weeks: Claregalway (April 21), Loughrea (April 28), Athenry (May 5), Caltra (May 12), Tuam (May 19) and Craughwell (May 26). A participant T-shirt is included with entry.
The event offered a full series ticket priced at €45; that full series option was listed as sold out. Online ticket sales were available between March 12, 2026 and May 16, 2026. The organiser provided a simple race structure with separate entries for each weekly 5 km event and a consistent format across the six venues.
Information published for the series focuses on locations, dates, the included T-shirt, the hosting club for the final race, the permit number, and the stated ticketing status for the full series option. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
