    We were at the last night of the pantomime and had a fantastic time. Every single member of staff made us feel very welcome. As soon as we arrived the atmosphere was brilliant. I went with my elderly mother who is in her eighties and has mobility issues. All staff were amazing and friendly and helpful. The pantomime was as usual was brilliant and we will be definitely booking for next year. Thank you for making our night a special one.

    Went for NI Open Snooker. Helpful staff. Tables to play on in Foyer. Ticket prices quite expensive. Other than that a very good visit.

    Went to see a new Marie Jones play, "Fly me to the Moon", in our favourite small theatre.
    As expected it was hilarious and a tour de force from the two women who were on stage throughout. It played well to a Belfast audience with a lovely display of local language and expressions and finished with a standing ovation.
    We love this small theatre for its intimacy and cosiness, and that wherever you sit you will have a full view of the stage.

    Recently went to the Ulster Hall for an Abba Waterloo story evening and we had a great time. My only gripe is that when we arrived the bar downstairs was closed and we had to go upstairs. Lids are removed from bottles for 'health and safety' yet we where allowed to go back downstairs with drinks in our hands which to me seemed quite unsafe.

    The open bottles also led to a lot of spillages. Two people in my close proximity's drinks went everywhere and the floor became really slippy.

    I pop in and out to use toilets here and after reading brochures,decided to attend a play.
    The staff are really nice and I enjoyed the Sam Cree play.
    But being disabled with bad knees,I found it a very uncomfortable experience.
    Two front row seats were reserved but they had board running along the front of the walk way area and the leg space was so small and if I tried to stretch out and rest my leg the board edge was sore on my leg.
    Pity about this and obviously it is not designed for such disability.
    But I plan to go back again. Toilets are clean and there is a coffee shop which opens during daytime.

    Was in belfast for the Christmas market and had dinner here on the 22nd of November.
    The food was amazing and the music made the experience perfect.
    The best part of our meal was the desert, salted carmel baked alaska which was excellent and amazing.

    Always love going to events in the Black Box. Friendly staff and a really great atmosphere make it one of the best venues in the city.

    We went to see Frosted tonight and took our 2 grandchildren aged 9 and 4 yrs old. It was their first pantomime and they absolutely loved it, we did as well. The show was so much fun and very well performed, the acting, songs, costumes and characters were all brilliant. I couldn’t recommend it enough, it really has to be seen. Well done Belvoir Players, we’re looking forward to next year already.

    I went to the Duncairn for a gig - John Spillane and Lisa Loughrey. The venue is beautiful and the sound was great (owing to natural acoustics and sound engineer I imagine).

    The gig was the best I have been to in years. John Spillane is well established and his faithful followers in Belfast came out in force. Lisa Loughrey had her debut Belfast gig. Lisa and John (and Lisa’s band) also did a number of songs together at the end. It turned into a mini impromptu session.

    The crowd were satisfied and the venue allowed guests to make their way out slowly so that they could chat with friends and meet the artists.

    Above all- I was most impressed with how the acts were treated by the staff. They were well looked after and not at all taken for granted. Lisa Loughrey is new to the North, but that did not change how the Duncairn event organisers treated her and her band.

    Dublin venues stand to learn a lot from the lovely Duncairn.

    It was well worth the trip up from Dublin. I look forward to my next trip up to the Duncairn!

    We went to see a comedy show at this venue, we weren’t expecting much as it wasn’t heavily advertised and initially quite empty at first. Slowly but surely there was a small crowd of 20+ people, all up for a nervous laugh.
    The acts were brilliant! The headliner was a lady called Bronagh? She was excellent! As was the lady compère, and the 3 male acts…would recommend

    Have been coming here on and off for a good few years, most of the time its quite good if enot even better. Colin Murphy is my favourite host and I'd come to watch him alone. Sorry that sounded a bit creepy! But hes really good. They have some great acts on too be it local or visiting from Dublin or England. The best thing to do in Belfast on a Tuesday night for sure though

    Always a brilliant night- great intimate atmosphere, brilliant musicians (especially when Scott and the house band Rohan and Andrew are playing)- we are lucky to have such top class entertainment in East Belfast!
