Tickets are €40 for chamber members and €50 for non-members. A corporate table of eight is available at €250,. Corporate table bookings can be arranged by contacting the chamber office directly at admin@mullingarchamber.ie.

The Ardonagh Group are sponsors of the budget breakfast for the second consecutive year.

Suzanne McEvoy, president of Mullingar Chamber of Commerce, said: “Westmeath is the centre of the country, and we believe it should be at the centre of every national conversation that matters to business, and there's no conversation more important right now than the budget.

"We're delighted to welcome An Tánaiste, Minister Harris, to the midlands, and to have both Minister Burke and Minister Troy joining us as well. Having three ministers of this standing in the room shows real recognition of what Mullingar and the wider midlands region contribute, and it gives our members a genuine opportunity to be heard ahead of Budget 2027.

"Our thanks go to The Ardonagh Group for their kind sponsorship, which has helped make this event possible.”
