Making the new Black G*te
Hello!
As you might know, we opened our music venue in January of 2017 and for the following three years, we ran hundreds of events, in music, literature, visual arts and film. We had to close during Covid, and then in 2021, just as we were about to reopen, our landlord sold the building and we were forced to pack up and leave.
But the Black G*te is not finished. It has taken time, but we found a new home for the Black G*te right in the centre of Galway (On Flood Street, around the corner from Quay Street).
Since we were forced to close four years ago, we have been fighting very hard to find a space and secure the funds to re-create our space, and open it up again for our community. People make a place, and just as you've all told us how much the Black G*te means to you all, we've missed you all too, and cannot wait to welcome you all back again in the near future.
We need to raise funds for electrical work, fire-safety alterations (AOV systems, fire-stairs rebuild, alarm systems), quiet ventilation systems, and other fixtures and fittings (metal-work and joinery). Although we've made good progress so far, we need one last push to get our new space ready and re-opened. We will share images along the way so that you can see the impact of the campaign on achieving our various building completion goals.

We have loads of great rewards including Black G*te postcards, Custom T-shirts, Special concert passes, designer/artist limited-edition original prints, Gift Vouchers, and much more.
Whether you are able to contribute to the campaign by pre-buying one of our many reward items/packages or even share the campaign with others, we thank you very much in advance.
Even if you are not in a position to purchase a reward to fund the campaign, we would really appreciate it if you can spread the word out the project. The Indiegogo share tools make it really easy to share on all major platforms, and every share helps us to get closer to re-opening again…
Thank you, and looking forward to greeting you when we reopen the doors ❤️
