The Belfast Holiday Art Walk is the perfect time to enjoy a wintry evening and appreciate the year-round joy and inspiration found in Belfast’s arts community. It’s also a great way to kick off a sparkling holiday weekend in Belfast!

At the Holiday Art Walk, you’ll also enjoy festive music from the Cold Comfort Theater carolers! Meet them on the corner of Main Street and High Street (in front of Alexia’s Pizza) at 6:00pm to join in and sing along – “no rehearsals, no sign-ups, just community joy”!
The Belfast Fourth Friday Art Walk series is made possible in part through the generous support of Belfast Creative Coalition members, Delvino’s Restaurant, Coyote Moon, Front Street Shipyard, and Bangor Savings Bank.
