Culture Night is presented by the Cathedral Quarter Trust.

BELFAST 22.09.17

W E L C O M EIt’s that time of the year again! The summer is coming to an end and it’s time to enjoy the rich cultural bounty our great city has to offer. The theme for this year’s Culture Night is urban ecology. We want to celebrate the interconnectivity of all things urban and creative. For such a small place, Belfast has a thriving eco-system of talent, creativity and ingenuity. We want to put all that culture under the microscope and celebrate the interconnectivity and diversity of our city. We want to showcase how we as individuals and organisations depend upon and complement each other, and contribute to the unique ‘cultural biodiversity’

of this place we call home.Our big message this year is ‘We can be more’ #weCNBmore (see what we did there?). It’s a reflection of how Culture Night and the city has grown and is growing. This year we are taking on a big challenge with a huge expansion of the Culture Night site. The event will stretch from the doors of City Hall to the doors of the Belfast Harbour Commissioners – spanning the entire city centre. We are also thinking of it as a challenge to everyone - we can all be more; be more caring, more creative, more adventurous, more open and more in touch.

We can bring a little bit of culture into our life by trying something new, whether it’s doing a bit of yoga, clowning around, painting a picture or taking up a spot of sword fighting, it’s about injecting a little bit of happiness and something different into our lives. That way, Culture Night doesn’t have to just be one day a year!

Finally we want to say a huge thank you to all the hundreds of organisations and thousands of hard working individuals who have earned our eternal gratitude for making this incredible event happen!

N E W F O R 2 0 1 7This year with the support of our funders and sponsors we’re thrilled to be embarking on our ninth Culture Night. Last year a record 85,000 people attended the event and this year we’re spreading the fun further across the city to make it more accessible and more ambitious than ever before. We’ll have a whole range of family activities taking place at City Hall from

1pm – 8pm including yoga, yarn bombing, creative workshops and more. We’ve also hooked the Big Fish from 2pm – 10pm with circus, music, dance, American football and parkour. We’ll be clowning around down at Belfast Harbour from 4 – 8pm with a mini Festival of Fools and the Thunder Action Sports bike show. If that’s not enough, we’re pleased to

welcome back the dance stage at Writer’s Square, a musical feast at Bank Square, and an amazing line up in Buoys Park with some of the freshest new live music in existence. Aren’t we good to you? On top of that we have lots of new venues and organisations this year in new and unexpected locations, so you’re in for an absolute treat!

All Culture Night events are free!

Most events will take place between 1pm – 10pm. Culture Night is a family friendly event with a range of activities that people of all ages can enjoy. However all events aimed specifically at children will stop promptly at 9pm and please remember that it’s illegal to have children on licensed premises after 8pm. All children must be supervised and accompanied by an adult.

Please note that all events are subject to change. Due to the size and nature of Culture Night Belfast, times and venues may change with events occasionally being cancelled or added to the programme after print.Be sure to check online for the most up to date information.

Culture Night HubsThe Culture Night hubs are the main point of contact for information, first aid, lost property and lost people.

Culture Night will have six hubs located at:

• Belfast City Hall• Rosemary Street/ Lombard Street• The Big Fish• St Anne’s Cathedral• Royal Avenue (Outside Culture Night Office)• Edwards Car Park (Outside the Black Box).

Transport and ParkingOur advice is to leave your car at home, if at all possible. We have worked hard with Translink and statutory agencies to make travel by bus, train, bike or foot as easy as possible. If you do need to bring your car, parking around the site is limited as there will be no on-street car parking spaces available within the Cathedral Quarter including Donegall Street, North Street, Union Street, Kent Street, Academy Street, Exchange Street, Hill Street, Waring Street, Skipper Street, Talbot Street and Royal Avenue. However there are ample parking facilities located around the city centre. Please see our website for more details.

Food and DrinkTo complement the excellent restaurants and cafes throughout the City, our Culture Bites strand will feature some of the best local street food vendors offering fabulous flavours from around the world. Please remember that Culture Night is a family friendly event and intoxicated behaviour will not be tolerated. Culture Night is not a ‘bring your own’ event and usual street drinking legislation applies. Culture Night is a breastfeeding-friendly event.

Disabled AccessInformation for disabled people and visitors who are not familiar with the venues is available through adaptni.org. While we endeavour to ensure full accessibility on Culture Night, the pop up nature of much of the activity will mean that some events may not be fully accessible.If you would like a large print version of this programme please contact [email protected] or call 028 9031 4011.
