About this Event

Marking 85 years since the four nights that changed the face of the city, the Northern Ireland War Memorial will host tours in East Belfast and the Cathedral Quarter.

These powerful tours draw on the museum's Oral History collection, sharing first-hand accounts from those who lived through the air raids. Their voices capture the chaos and confusion, the danger endured, and the devastating impact and lasting legacy of the nights Belfast was 'blitzed'.

Along the routes, participants will also encounter listed buildings and sites with protected status, highlight how parts of the city's historic built environment - some damaged during the Blitz - have been preserved and safeguarded for future generations.

Cathedral Quarter Walking Tour:

This tour will begin at 2pm inside the Northern Ireland War Memorial Museum (What3Words: Soup.Vote.Plenty) and finishes at Belfast City Hall, lasting around 90 minutes.
