A night celebrating talent, impact, community and belonging.

We’re reflecting on an unforgettable evening at the GALAS LGBTQ+ Awards 2026, celebrating the incredible people, organisations and allies helping to create a more inclusive and welcoming Ireland for everyone.

We were delighted to once again sponsor the Event of the Year category, won by Dublin D**e March 2026.

At Catapult, we’re proud to have supported and produced (every year since 2016!), an event that brings people together, recognises meaningful impact and shines a light on the incredible work happening across Ireland’s LGBTQ+ community.

A huge thank you to everyone who joined us, supported the event - particularly Creative Technology | Ireland - and helped make this year’s GALAS such a memorable celebration. And congratulations to all of the nominees and winners!

Here’s to continuing to create spaces where people, ideas and communities can thrive and where everyone has the opportunity to shine.

Music festivals. Football fandom. A world champion’s farewell. And the future of fan experience.

It’s been a busy month at Catapult.

Rockshore Live x Electric Picnic - Stradbally, Co. Laois
Big festival energy, with room to breathe.

Rockshore Live brought some of Ireland’s best talent including F3miii, Le Boom, NewDad and Bricknasty to the heart of Electric Picnic, alongside a b**r garden built for kicking back with an ice-cold Rockshore .

We also brought RTÉ 2FM’s iconic Studio 8 to Stradbally for live broadcasts, interviews and exclusive sets. A radio studio in a b**r garden? Now that’s our kind of live entertainment.

Arsenal x Guinness Storehouse - Dublin
Ahead of Arsenal Football Club’s match at the Aviva, we brought generations of Gunners together at the Guinness Storehouse for a night of football, music and culture.

Arsenal legends David O’Leary, Emma Byrne and Liam Brady took the stage, alongside Tara Kumar and BRIT Award nominee Joy Crookes, celebrating the Irish fans who have long been part of Arsenal’s story.

Paddy Power x Katie Taylor - Dublin
A world champion’s farewell deserved a city-sized send-off.

For Katie Taylor’s final fight at Croke Park, we took the moment beyond the stadium and onto the streets, turning Dublin into a canvas and giving fight night the full Paddy Power treatment.

Catapult at LEAP 2026 - Saudi Arabia
Our Chief Experience Officer David Davies joined three panels at LEAP 2026 to talk about what’s next for fan experience.

From attracting new audiences, to building cultural relevance through technology, one question kept coming up: are we using technology to genuinely improve the experience, or simply because we can?

For us, technology isn’t the point. It’s what it enables: participation, connection, community and moments that feel relevant.

Celebrating Creativity, Collaboration and the Power of Purposeful Partnerships.

The 2026 Business to Arts Awards at the National Concert Hall were a powerful celebration of creativity, collaboration, and what can happen when business and the arts come together with purpose, complimented by some seriously good performances bringing the creative spirit to life throughout the night!

We were delighted to continue our 25-year commitment as long-standing production partners and Awards Sculpture commissioning partners. This year’s sculpture, Intertidal by Wexford-based artist Fiona Byrne, was a fitting symbol of connection and where partnerships can flourish.

A highlight was seeing Cuilcagh Lakelands Geopark and artist AlanJames Burns win the Irish Life Creativity in the Community Award for Divergently Together, a brilliant example of creativity amplifying neurodivergent voices and connecting community, climate and place.

Congratulations too to Irish Life, recognised for their continued commitment to the arts through James Earley Life In Threes, a 170sqm permanent artwork transforming their central atrium through colour, light and sculptural form.

This year’s recipients illustrate what sustained investment can achieve when it is matched by artistic ambition - an ambition we have been proud to support for 25 years.

A World Champion’s farewell. Paddy Power style.

The fight was at Croke Park, but a moment this big deserved to be seen everywhere.

As Dublin geared up for Katie’s final fight, we made the city a canvas; building anticipation, owning the moment and giving a legendary night a little more Paddy Power.

Huge thanks to the Paddy Power team for trusting us with this one.

Innovation isn’t remembered when it’s explained. It’s remembered when it’s experienced.

This July, 90,000 visitors did more than just see the future at FutureLab, Goodwood Festival of Speed 2026. They stepped inside it.

Catapult have been part of the creation, design and production of Future Lab since it first started in 2017, collaborating with the incredible team at and curator Lucy Johnston.

Since then, it has grown into one of the leading showcases of emerging technology, where we’ve partnered with pioneering organisations to transform complex science and engineering into immersive, human-centred experiences that spark curiosity and invite participation.

This year’s edition brought together some of the world’s most influential innovators, including , the , the National Quantum Computing Centre, , DEEP, Dark Star Labs, Factum Foundation and Mirokaï.
