Visitor Information Centres

You’re never alone in Northern Ireland! As the local experts we’ve got a wealth of visitor information to share with you - inspiration on what to do, where to go, where to eat and drink and, of course, where to stay when you’re here in Northern Ireland. 

Advice and information close at hand 

Northern Ireland’s network of Visitor Information Centres (VICs) are located across Northern Ireland, so that no matter where you are you can get the information and advice that you need. 

You’ll find people happy to help with advice on what’s happening locally and right across Northern Ireland. They’ll point you to the nearest and best activities and attractions, offer maps, brochures and guides to help you on your way, and some centres even sell books, souvenirs and postcards. 

Belfast Welcome Centre, conveniently located opposite Belfast City Hall, welcomes in excess of three hundred thousand visitors to Belfast and Northern Ireland each year. 

You’ll find free WiFi, interactive touchscreens, city maps and guides, a quality souvenir shop, left luggage service and a helpful ticketing service for events, experiences and attractions. Translink, Northern Ireland’s main public transport provider, have a manned ticket desk located within the Welcome Centre, and staff will be happy to help you with your travel arrangements. 

Belfast Welcome Centre, and the other Visitor Information Centres located across Northern Ireland, can provide you with information, inspiration and practical tips about travelling right across Northern Ireland and not just the local area. 

You can contact each centre by email or telephone, or just drop in and meet the helpful staff.
