Waterfront Hall
2 Lanyon Place, Belfast BT1 3WH
The opening of the Waterfront Hall in 1997 helped to establish Belfast as a key European conference destination. In addition to the venue's meeting rooms and business facilities, it has an impressive annual entertainment programme that sees the biggest names in UK comedy grace its stages, along with top touring acts and music performers. The programme is also incredibly diverse, catering for all tastes and age groups, including family events. The gallery space hosts regular exhibitions from both local and international artists so it's worth calling in if strolling along Lanyon Place. The Hall's location is stunning with views from the bar and restaurant looking out over the Lagan. From the outside, the building can be quite breathtaking lit up at night. The cafe is open during the day from Mon-Fri while the arc brasserie serves evening meals on performance nights - please do ring ahead to book. There's also a small gift shop and the Box Office on the ground floor. For upcoming events and performances, check out the website. Tickets for most Waterfront shows can also be purchased at the Ulster Hall Box Office as well as Ticketmaster.
