Welcome to Belfast Castle
Belfast Castle, located in the Cave Hill area of north Belfast, was built in the 1860s and is one of the city's most famous landmarks. Licensed to hold both marriage and civil partnership ceremonies, the castle makes the perfect backdrop for fairytale weddings
With spacious reception rooms, mouth-watering menus and beautiful locations for your photographs, no wonder it's one of Northern Ireland's most popular wedding venues!
Thanks to our convenient location just minutes from Belfast city centre by car, Belfast Castle can also cater for your conference and event needs, whether you're arranging a business meeting or organising a larger function.
Located 400 foot above sea level, and offering stunning views over Belfast, the castle also makes a great base for a fun day out, offering plenty of things to do, whether you're visiting Cave Hill Visitor Centre or thinking about climbing Cave Hill itself!
And, when you've got your breath back, why not step back in time at the Cellar Restaurant, where you can enjoy fresh, local cuisine in our unique Victorian-era surroundings?
