11:30pm – Visit Botanic gardens, an important part of Belfast’s Victorian heritage and a popular meeting place for residents, students and tourists. In addition to the Palm House and Tropical Ravine, there is a children’s playground and beautiful walks around the grounds.
1:00pm – Some of the traders from St George’s Market will be in the grounds of City Hall on Saturday as part of our Belfast BIG 400 Festival. Buy artisan foods, antiques and collectibles, crafts, jewellery and much more. T13 Urban Sports Academy, which will be onsite from 11am to 5pm. In the afternoon, the Ramprage Exreme Sports Crew will give two awe-inspiring demos on the TITAN half pipe (1.30pm and 4.30pm). Look out for the freestyle BMX, skate, parkour, flatland BMX and break dance exhibitions performed to hip-hop beats from RampRage resident DJ Koncept.
There will be plenty of other activities, including films and tours. And the City Hall lights will be shining in corporate colours of turquoise, navy and gold from 9pm on Saturday evening.
Also at Belfast Zoo, Kids can get FREE entry this Saturday if they dress up like a tapir or in black and white (like a Malayan Tapir)! It’s all in aid of World Tapir Day and you can find out more about the tapirs during feeding times at 12pm and 2pm.
3:00pm – The Treehouse, Belfast’s only rooftop restaurant. Live music, Mexican influenced food and cold beer. You can find this hidden gem on upper Arthur street.
5:00pm – Having recently been listed as one of the top 50 best coffee shops in the UK, Canteen at the MAC’s new Brew Bar is now taking that to the next level with “a coffee experience which is second to none in Northern Ireland”.
You got to try their filter coffee…. No sugar and no milk.
7:30pm – Cabaret supper club, transport yourself back into 1920’s Hollywood witht a dinner and show. Roisin Starkey & Paddy Walsh set the pace for this night of frolics. Taking us to the next level are hosts Robert Brown & Trudy Scrumptious, revved up and ready to go with bags of new songs and performances. Beautiful burlesque routines are performed by our resident dance troop The Cabaret Cotton Candies and they never fail to impress. Mr Magic Caolan Mc Bride baffles with his sleight of hand and infectious banter and keen eye for the mysterious. Topping off this fantastic evening are the one and only Queens of Cool, The Bananamamas – skidding into Cabaret from a visit back to the ’80’s!
Whatever you do this weekend. Enjoy #LoveBelfast
