Speaking on the location, the festival’s new Artistic Director Martyne Green said:

"Galway is such a vibrant city all year round, but there really is something special about that last week in October - you can feel the funny in the air. With performers joining us from all over the world, I can't wait to immerse myself in the mayhem, madness and mirth… see you there."
