What's On along the Causeway Coastal Route

Everything you see as you make your way along the Causeway Coastal Route will etch itself into your memory. Discover 120 miles of Northern Ireland's coastal landscapes and lustrous scenery. The route cuts through a rich tapestry of stunning bays and harbours, luscious green glens, rolling hills, rivers, and lakes. But beyond the splendour of the scenery are the incredible people you'll meet and their celebrations in song and dance, in food and the fairs and festivals that bring them together every year. Some highlights include...

Garden Walk and Talk at Mussenden Temple and Downhill Demesne (Wed 22 - Wed 29 Apr)

Join for a relaxed walk through the grounds of Mussenden Temple and Downhill Demesne. This guided tour takes you through the quiet Bog Garden and into the Bishop’s Gate Arboretum. As you walk, the team will point out seasonal flowers and exotic trees while sharing how they look after the estate throughout the year. It is a simple way for nature lovers to learn about the history and plants of these peaceful gardens.

Glenarm Castle Tulip Festival 2026 (Sat 2 - Mon 4 May)

Visit Glenarm Castle for the annual Tulip Festival. Held over the May Bank Holiday weekend, the event features thousands of tulips in bloom throughout the walled garden. Alongside the displays, you can enjoy live music, local food, and various craft stalls. With carnival rides and a mini Land Rover course for children, it is a practical choice for a family day out or a quiet walk in the grounds.

Briggs Equipment North West 200 (Mon 4 - Sat 9 May)

Discover the Northwest 200, a major event in the international motorcycle road racing calendar. The 8.9-mile circuit links the towns of Portrush, Portstewart, and Coleraine, turning the same roads locals use for work into a track where riders reach speeds of over 200mph. Visitors can choose to watch from one of the grandstand seats or find a spot along the circuit for free. With a festival featuring music, food, and fireworks alongside the racing, it is a busy and popular time to visit this part of Northern Ireland.

Roe Valley Speciality Market (Sat 16 May)

Head to Limavady's central Drumceatt Square to find a small, friendly Speciality Market. This outdoor market is a great spot to explore if you love local fresh food, handmade crafts, and fine art. The market is free to enter, and you can bring your dog as long as it's on a lead. While you're there, you'll be welcomed by local traders and discover a range of locally made products.
