Give Us the Night research earlier this year found that the number of clubs in Ireland had declined by almost 84 per cent in just over two decades. The average number of venues per county has dropped from 19 to about three, and some areas no longer have any.

In my multimodal digital project for the MA in Digital Media in NUI Galway, “There Goes the Night” I have made sound-montages and digital images concentrating around 3 former Galway nightlife venues.
