Stormy Atlantic winds once hid rebels, artists, and outlaws right here in Sligo’s winding streets. Behind every quiet facade lurks a secret waiting to be unearthed.

This self-guided audio tour peels back layers most visitors miss, guiding you through the city’s vibrant heart from The Model’s creative pulse to the thunderous cheers at The Showgrounds and the solemn shadows of St John the Baptist Cathedral.

Who carved forbidden messages in cathedral stone on a midnight dare? What scandal erupted on the football pitch that divided a town for decades? And whose haunting portrait still lingers inside The Model, with a story no one dares repeat?

Walk deeper into Sligo’s tangled past and feel its living stories swirl around you with every step. This is no ordinary stroll but a journey of drama, intrigue, and discovery.

Unlock Sligo’s hidden soul—let the real adventure begin.
