Plenty to see and do over the next week in the city!
This Sunday, Belfast is set to host the Comhaltas Fleadh Cheoil na hÉireann, the world’s biggest celebration of Irish music and culture, for the first time.
Running for eight days, qualifying competitors from all over the world will showcase the very best of traditional music, song, dance and language in All-Ireland competitions.
Over 800,000 people are expected to enjoy the celebrations, which will also include street performances, pub sessions and stage concerts.
As the city centre will be alive with planned events, pop-ups, competitions and more, a large area is set to be pedestrianised and planned road closures are in place.
If you are wondering where the main Fleadh venues are, where to explore within the pedestrian zone and information on fringe venues, a handy map has been created to make navigating your day out.
Belfast City Council also has an interactive map with a host of information, including car parks, food villages and campsites.
You can view it here.
The Fleadh road closures will be in place from 6am on Sunday 2 August to 5am on Monday 10 August, with the biggest footfall expected from Thursday 6 August onwards.
