Later, Mr Martin is to deliver the Lord David Trimble Lecture 2026 at Queen’s University Belfast.
Speaking ahead of his visit, the Taoiseach said he is pleased to be returning to Belfast.
“My visit includes multiple opportunities to hear directly from political, business and civic leaders and to discuss ongoing and evolving all-island priorities which benefit us all,” he said.
“I am also pleased to be delivering the Lord David Trimble Lecture in Queen’s University. David played a critical role in the achievement of the Good Friday Agreement.
“The principles and purpose of the Agreement remain central to what my Government does and how we foster relationships across these islands.”
