Belfast and NI in 2013
Welcome to Belfast and Northern Ireland 2013-style with yet another amazing line-up of celebrations and events.
In prime position,
Derry~Londonderry becomes the first ever
UK City of Culture. Highlights of its year-long cultural programme include visits from the Royal Ballet, Turner Prize and Fleadh Cheoil na hEireann, the world's biggest festival of Irish culture. Get all the latest news and book your tickets at
www.cityofculture2013.com.
Meanwhile, in June, the world's political elite and their equally imposing entourages shake up the tranquil town of Enniskillen, as the Lough Erne Resort hosts the
G8 summit. Expect to see Obama, Putin and co. tee-ing off between hard hitting decisions and demonstrations.
Then for ten days in August, Belfast hosts the
World Police and Fire Games, one of the world's largest international multi-sports events. We're talking 10,000 competitors, 25,000 visitors, 70 countries and 57 sports. To satiate those post-Olympic blues, click
www.2013wpfg.com and get yourself over for the big event.
Three fab reasons to visit NI in 2013 - though our magnificent scenery, award-winning restaurants, superb hotels and pubs that are the 'real deal' make this destination a no-brainer. So don't just sit there... come and see for yourself.
