Belfast's festive season officially begins with the Christmas Lights Switch-On at Belfast City Hall on 14 November 2026. The event features local artists and performers before the city is illuminated for Christmas, marking the start of weeks of festive events and entertainment across Belfast.
At the heart of the celebrations is the popular Belfast Christmas Market in the grounds of City Hall. The market brings together traders, festive food and drink, Christmas gifts and seasonal entertainment, creating a lively festive atmosphere right in the centre of Belfast.
Christmas activities also return to 2 Royal Avenue, with the annual Winter's Den and Santa's Post Office forming part of the city's 2026 festive programme. Visitors can combine these attractions with Christmas shopping around Royal Avenue, Donegall Place and Victoria Square, while festive lighting and entertainment can be enjoyed throughout the city centre.
