Galway International Arts Festival (GIAF ) is delighted to announce that Diligent, the leading governance, risk, and compliance (GRC ) software-as-a-service (SaaS ) company, is a Festival Partner for the 2025 festival, which runs from July 14 to July 27.
With a mission to empower leaders to create greater impact, Diligent’s support aligns with the festival’s commitment to delivering extraordinary cultural experiences, sustainably and as inclusively as possible. Their partnership with GIAF reflects a shared vision of engaging diverse and broad audiences while promoting creativity, innovation, and community spirit.
Diligent will partner with GIAF on the street circus spectacle Six from Canadian company Flip Fabrique. This playful and awe-inspiring new acrobatic comedy will be free to the public with performances taking place in Eyre Square on Wednesday, July 16 at 4pm and Thursday, July 17 at 1pm.
Ruairi Conroy, Galway site lead and vice president of sales development at Diligent, said: "We are so proud to continue our partnership with GIAF for a third year. It is a highlight for our Galway team, who are genuinely passionate about being part of something that brings the city to life. GIAF reflects so many of the values we hold at Diligent — creativity, connection, and community. Supporting free, accessible cultural moments like Six in Eyre Square is something we are really excited to be part of.”
The partnership between Diligent and GIAF has developed steadily in recent years, and both organisations are proud to continue building on this strong and collaborative relationship.
Festival CEO, John Crumlish, said, "We are thrilled to welcome Diligent once again as a valued Festival Partner. Their ongoing support allows us to deliver a world-class festival experience and also helps make the arts accessible to all by being free of charge. It is partnerships like this that truly are important in any community.”
