SAN FRANCISCO GALA

The San Francisco Gala is our flagship West Coast event that recognizes and celebrates the business, cultural, political and philanthropic achievements of the Irish diaspora and friends of Ireland.

Due to the continued issues related to the Covid-19 pandemic, we will be hosting the Gala virtually this year.

We hope you will join us for this special online presentation celebrating our 2021 honoree, the work of The Ireland Funds and your philanthropic impact, while enjoying a touch of Ireland provided by Irish dancers, singers and musicians.

Featuring

Join our wonderful host, Actor Matt McCoy, along with special guests including former President of Ireland Mary McAleese, Oscar-nominated actress Ruth Negga, Booker Prize-winning author Roddy Doyle – and music from the DCU Choir, U2-supported Music Generation, and dancing from the Fusion Fighters Galway Girls.

Early Bird

5:45PM – Join us for memories of past celebrations as we countdown to the 2021 San Francisco Gala.
