History

Irish Citylink was founded in 2003. In 2010, Citylink contracted the running of its bus services to Callinan Coaches while remaining in control of sales and marketing of its routes.[1]

In 2022, Citylink announced the acquisition of Galway based carrier GoBus, bringing their daily departures to over 100 direct, express, and multi-stop services. In 2024, the GoBus and Eireagle brands were discontinued and liveries and uniforms were brought in-line with the overall Citylink brand[2]. All former GoBus as well as Eireagle vehicles have now received Citylink branding.
