Belfast Maritime Festival Sets Sail This September from Titanic Quarter

Titanic Quarter is proud to once again be at the heart of the Belfast Maritime Festival, returning on Saturday 6 and Sunday 7 September 2025. Spanning the iconic Maritime Mile, this much-loved event promises a vibrant celebration of Belfast’s rich maritime heritage, with something for everyone to enjoy.

Across the weekend, the waterfront will be transformed into a hive of activity, with historic ships moored along the quayside, street theatre, live music, interactive heritage experiences, artisan food markets, and family-friendly zones.

Festival-goers can expect a mix of cultural programming and hands-on fun, including storytelling, crafts, and tours that connect past and present in one of Europe’s most authentic waterfront destinations.

One of this year’s headline moments will be a special open-air concert by Hothouse Flowers, joined by Ríoghnach Connolly and Honeyfeet, on Saturday 6th September at 7PM – a must-see performance set against the backdrop of Belfast’s historic docklands.

🎟 Tickets for the headline performance are available now via Visit Belfast.

Organised by Belfast City Council in partnership with Maritime Belfast Trust and supported by Belfast Harbour, Titanic Quarter, Titanic Belfast, Odyssey Trust, Department for Communities, and Tourism NI, this festival continues to celebrate the people, place, and stories that make Belfast’s waterfront truly unique.
