Can I camp on eye square ?

15-10-2022 2:01pm #1

I am coming down from Mayo for a night out. Hotels are over 200 Euro, Can't book a hostel as they don't do Saturday night bookings.

I think I am just going to camp on eye square. I will be locked anyway so I won't really notice the cold or wet. Anyone envisage an issue with this ?

I assume you mean Eyre square

I don't see any issue with camping there .. it will be relatively quiet on a Saturday night and well away from the all the antisocial behaviour in Galway. Not a chance of any drunken passer-by's who might think about doing something stupid to a random tent.

go for it ... it will be the best €200 you'll ever save

Apologies yes Eyre square. Okay point taken. maybe go out one of the roads a bit. Do you know any estates with a green near the center where I can camp ?

Ballybrit racecourse

What about the Connacht showgrounds ? That would be near enough the center.

I am a big wild Mayo man. They wouldn't want to wake me while buggering me. It would end bad for them.

Reverse Deliverance. Mountain man ends up squealing like a pig in "civilization"

... so it's OK if they bugger you while you're asleep?

If a tree falls in the words and no one sees it, does that mean the tree actually fell ?

Best place to camp is on Loughatsalia Rd. Quiet there and if you pick the righ spot, tent won't be seen from footpath.

presuming the question is legit, you’d be moved on if you pitched in Ayre square.

There used to be campsites in salthill.

Years ago anyway

Must be a quiet day in Mayo to bring on a bout of "Wind up Galway Folk" 🙂

You can camp in Rusheen park, near Barna Woods, behind the Texaco. There is a No Camping sign but a number of families (of minor ethicity with Offaly and mid land car/van registrations) camped there 3 or 4 times this summer (2022), and nothing was done or said about it by the council or gardaí.
