Top Things To Do This Weekend (4 – 6 December)

As restrictions ease once again, shops and non-essential services are open and just in time for the festive season too! Here are our top things to do this weekend to help kickstart this merry month.

 

1. Attend A Virtual Night At The Opera

Oranmore soprano singer Helen Hancock is presenting a virtual performance of chamber music and your festive favourites in aid of Galway Simon Community. The exclusive performance will be filmed from the beautiful surroundings of Armorica restaurant in Oranmore, and will be available to view from the comfort of your own home on 5 December at 7.30pm. Be sure to support this wonderful cause!

2. Book A Relaxing Wild Atlantic Seaweed Bath

Wild Atlantic Seaweed Baths, established during the summer of 2018 provide one of the only fully mobile seaweed bath outfits in Ireland. It is definitely worth taking a dip in one of their custom Irish whiskey barrel baths. People who have tried the baths can attest to the incredible benefits seaweed baths had for their skin, aches and pains as well as how it contributed to incredible sleep afterward.

3. Get Out and Shop Local!

Retail businesses are finally able to open their doors again and the smaller businesses will be only delighted to see your face. Be sure you pop in and get the last of your Christmas shopping done. Just make sure you wear your mask!
