Glamour, generosity, and Galway’s racing spirit will come together in spectacular fashion on Monday, July 28th, as The Connacht Hotel once again proudly hosts the hugely anticipated Racing for Rosabel event – a dazzling day out in support of the inspiring Rosabel’s Rooms charity.

Now a much-loved highlight of Race Week, Racing for Rosabel is not only a chic and celebratory event but one with heart, raising vital funds for a cause close to many in the local community and across Ireland.

Guests attending this year’s event can look forward to:
-A stylish drinks reception and live entertainment on arrival
-A mouth-watering three-course luncheon in the elegant surroundings of The Connacht Hotel
-Racing tips and insights from some of Ireland’s top jockeys
-Access and transport to Ballybrit Racecourse
-And an incredible €7,000 worth of prizes up for grabs across Best Dressed Lady, Best Dressed Gent, and Best Headpiece categories

Tickets are now on sale for €100 per person, with the proceeds going to Rosabel’s Rooms, a charity founded by Suzanne McClean and Gary Monroe. Rosabel’s Rooms, in collaboration with the Irish Hospice Foundation’s Design & Dignity project, has created comforting and purpose-designed hospital spaces for families experiencing the unimaginable loss of a child. The charity also provides therapeutic and financial support through the Room-to-Heal fund, helping families manage the practical realities of grief with compassion and dignity.
