Alongside the main attraction was live music, a food village, children\u2019s entertainment and many trade stalls.<\/p>\n<p>This year\u2019s Classic Fest benefactor was the Parent Accommodation Fund of the Neonatal ICU Unit in University Hospital Galway, who at a recent presentation at the Oranmore Lodge Hotel received a cheque for \u20ac10,000 from event organisers Irish Vintage Scene. The Oranmore-based publishing and printing business is owned by Thomas and Pauline Heavey, who headed up the organisation of Classic Fest.<\/p>\n<p>The success of this Parent Accommodation Fund means that parents of critically ill or premature babies who are not from Galway will have their accommodation needs supported during their stay in Galway. There is no accommodation available for this unit in the hospital, meaning it\u2019s all private, paid-for accommodation that\u2019s used. Classic Fest says the donation will help those families at this very stressful time in their lives.<\/p>\n<p>The cheque was present to Dr Johannes Letshwiti, consultant neonatologist and Irene Glynn, clinical nurse manager of the Neonatal ICU Unit.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.autotrade.ie\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/photo-1-1024x577.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"872\" height=\"491\" class=\" wp-image-67900 aligncenter\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.autotrade.ie\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/photo-1-1024x577.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.autotrade.ie\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/photo-1-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.autotrade.ie\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/photo-1-800x450.jpg 800w, https:\/\/www.autotrade.ie\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/photo-1-768x432.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.autotrade.ie\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/photo-1-1536x865.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.autotrade.ie\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/photo-1.jpg 2000w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 872px) 100vw, 872px\" \/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Classic Fest was the largest vintage &amp; classic vehicle show in Ireland again this year, and followed on from the huge success of the 2022<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":15,"featured_media":67900,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_exactmetrics_skip_tracking":false,"_exactmetrics_sitenote_active":false,"_exactmetrics_sitenote_note":"","_exactmetrics_sitenote_category":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[1001,1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-67899","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-irish-news","category-news","cat-1001-id","cat-1-id","has_thumb"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v25.5 -
