The Linen Yarn – Cultural Walking Tour

Come explore a vibrant and distinct quarter of Belfast, to hear entertaining ‘yarns’ or stories of people and events across 250 years that relate to what you’ll see.  Find out about about the quarter’s heritage and links to the linen industry, as well as enjoying its modern street art, historic buildings and lively entertainment venues.

Following on from the success of previous years, Cultural Walking Tours have become a welcome part of the Festival.  We have again teamed up with the Northern Ireland Tourist Guide Association to bring you a series of cultural and interesting walking tours.  The best way to explore the city is on foot and with highly knowledgeable professional guides leading the way and you’ll experience a whole other side to Belfast.  Whether you are a resident of Northern Ireland who wants to know more about our capital or are visiting the City for the first time, these tours are a must!
