Murray’s Bar Sessions
Unforgettable!
Having recorded many times and travelled the world as a singer with various Irish bands, hotel manager Andrew Murray’s musical connections reach far beyond the walls of this Inishbofin hotel. Many of his friends from his days on the road come to play in Murray’s every season. You are always guaranteed top class musicians. You can expect to hear all genres from Classical to Jazz, Traditional and Folk.
Famous for its great Inishbofin music sessions, Murray’s is considered by punters and musicians alike as one of the best venues for pub music sessions in the country. Musicians travel from all corners of Ireland to play here. With sessions 7 nights a week during the summer, you can’t get a better place to stay or to visit to be close to the music and the craic.

SUMMER CONCERT SERIES
KEEP A CLOSE EYE ON OUR EVENTS PAGE FOR NEWS OF OUR 2022 SUMMER CONCERTS
With some of Ireland’s best performers lined up and raring to go, you really need to keep a close eye on our calendar for our weekly Murray’s Yard Summer 2023 Concert series.
Having taken a few years off from our famous concerts, we have restarted a fresh new series since 2019, in our rebranded Murray’s Yard venue. Unfortunately, the fantastic 2020 & 2021 series we had planned fell foul of COVID restrictions, but we are doing it all again this year.
