Description

Following an acclaimed run of the ROOTS live shows, embark on the Roots Immersive Audio Trail and awaken your senses as you journey through the newly planted garden at Black Mountain Shared Space in Belfast.

With headsets on, you'll be immersed in a mesmerising blend of poetry, storytelling, music, and soundscapes, all deeply rooted in the spirit of the local communities and the striking landscape of Black Mountain. What was once a contested space adjacent to the 'Million Brick' Peace Wall has been transformed into a sanctuary where all can grow, reflect, and dream.

Brought to life by a dynamic team of artists and expert gardeners, this unique experience invites you to explore, connect, and find peace in this re-imagined shared space.

The audio trail lasts 30 mins beginning at 12:30 and 1:30.

This event is recommended for ages 10+ and children and young people should be accompanied by an adult. If you require any specific accessibility info, please e-mail siobhan@offtherailsdance.com

Please note that this trail takes place entirely outdoors, and some of the ground can be wet or uneven underfoot. Please check the forecast, dress accordingly, and if it's due to rain, please wear something with a hood.
