The Druid Theatre Company, founded in Galway in 1975, was the first Irish professional theatre company to be established outside Dublin. It has led the way in the development of Irish theatre in the ensuing years and is generally credited (along with Macnas, and the Galway Arts Festival) with making Galway one of the premier cultural centres in Ireland.

The Theatre is situated in the centre of Galway and features a fine portico overlooking the newly renovated Courthouse Square and a bar/cafe in the upper foyer.
Founded in 1975, Druid was the first professional theatre in Ireland outside Dublin and is universally recognised as one of the pioneers of the modern cultural development of Ireland in the last quarter of a century.
Druid today continues to be acclaimed for its award-winning work on the dynamic Irish repertoire including new productions of classics as well as nurturing the work of a new generation of Irish writers.
