culture night belfast 2014

I made it to the Culture Night 2014, woot! I popped into The Northern Whig for dinner last Friday before hitting the Cathedral Quarter. The festival was even bigger this year, with more events and performances. I didn't manage to stay the whole way through though, so here are just some of the programmes and acts that I managed to catch.

The Dog Ruff String Band

Caught The Dog Ruff String Band just outside The Northern Whig who were jamming bluegrass music. They were really good and entertaining.

Yarn bombing at Buoys Park

I was looking forward to more yarn bombing at CNB14 and what they did at Buoys Park was really cute. I was hoping to catch the roller derby girls but no luck.

Flowers in Cathedral Gardens

Inside Established Coffee

Love these quotes seen inside Oh Yeah

DSNT

I was actually looking forward to DSNT's installation this time round. But it was a smaller one this year and there wasn't much place for us to stand around or explore. Also, waiting for the lift to take us from one floor to another was also a bit of a pain.

Seen on the ceiling of Belfast Print Workshop

My favourite stop of the night was a tour of Belfast Print Workshop. A guide, Chloe, showed us the etching process and another guide, Neil, talked us through the printing process. Really nice bunch of people and a great place to create art.

Overall, it was a great way to spend Friday night. Looking forward to CNB15!
