Belfast

Belfast is a busy, cosmopolitan city that has undergone remarkable development and renewal in recent years. As the capital of Northern Ireland, Belfast is an ideal destination for conferences, meetings and incentives. Local currency operates in UK Sterling (GBP), with Euro (€) widedly accepted. Belfast enjoys regional and international access by two airports and two busy Ferry ports. Dublin city and Dublin airport are aproximately 2 hours by road.

Considerable investment has seen Belfast and Northern Ireland's conference and incentive product expand significantly. Belfast is now a modern, forward thinking business tourism destination with world-class conference facilities, superb hotel accommodation and a wide range of unique and unusual activities for pre and post conference tours and incentive trips.

Belfast's striking Victorian and Edwardian architecture, critically acclaimed restaurants, colourful history and its year round festival calendar and burgeoning art scene, mean the city  offers plenty of things to see and do. Northern Ireland's compactness means that some of Ireland’s most spectacular scenery, such as the Giant’s Causeway, the Mountains of Mourne and Carrick-a-Rede Rope Bridge are just a short drive from Belfast.

If you would like help planning or organising a conference or meeting in Belfast, the Belfast Convention Bureau offers a free venue finding service and accommodation booking service as well as advise on many other elements of your event. Local knowledge can go a long way!
