Galway’s G Logo Battle | Galway News

Galway’s beloved “G” logo, born in 1984 for the city’s 500th anniversary, is sparking a passionate grassroots campaign to keep it — not just as a design, but as a symbol of heritage and pride. Created by hand by local legend Jimmy Conneely, the logo has become deeply woven into the city’s identity. Critics argue the rebranding push, already costing €28,000, lacks public input and could be better spent supporting struggling businesses. Many insist any change should come from Galway’s own arts community — and perhaps wait until the 800th anniversary in 2036. For now, the people are standing firm: this “G” isn’t just a logo — it’s history.
