This unique night brings together great food, drinks, and local spooky legends for an unforgettable celebration of the season.

Armagh’s Georgian Weekend (Thur 27 - Sun 30 Nov)

Armagh’s Georgian Weekend attracts crowds to the city every November to experience life as a Georgian. And it is quite an experience, taking in the best of Armagh’s Georgian history, heritage and architectural past. Historical buildings open their doors, horses and carriages parade along the Mall and powdered wigs are everywhere. The Great Georgian Banquet at Archbishop’s Robinson’s Palace is just one example, Talks, tours, live music and suitably themed food and drink all add to the atmosphere for children and adults alike.

These are just some of many exciting things Armagh has lined up for you - you can be sure that whenever you choose to visit, you’re guaranteed an eventful trip.
