General Information

Is Belfast safe to visit?

Belfast is one of the safest cities in Europe, and Northern Ireland has the second lowest crime rate in Europe.

However, it is always wise to be sensible and follow general safety tips such as leaving money and valuables in a safe place and locking valuables out of sight.

Whilst a safe and welcoming city for visitors, like any major urban area, it’s wise to stay aware of your surroundings, but overall, Belfast offers a friendly atmosphere, low crime levels in tourist areas, and a strong sense of community. The city has undergone a remarkable transformation in recent decades and is now known for its vibrant culture, rich history, and warm hospitality. Whether you’re exploring historic landmarks, enjoying the local food scene, or attending events, visitors consistently find Belfast to be a safe and enjoyable destination.

Will my southern reg car be safe in Belfast?

If you’re travelling from the Republic of Ireland for the first time, to attend the Fleadh in Belfast, you’re very welcome. We want to reassure you that cars with southern Irish registrations are a common sight in the city and throughout Northern Ireland.

Belfast is a vibrant and welcoming place, especially during major events, and visitors from the South are warmly received. Southern-registered vehicles generally do not attract any special attention, and the vast majority of visits are safe and enjoyable.

As with any city, we recommend following standard precautions: park in well-lit, secure areas and avoid leaving valuables in your vehicle. But rest assured, it’s perfectly normal — and safe — to drive and park a southern-registered car in Belfast.

Further information about official car parking locations, park and rides, city centre car parks will be made available in the next few months.

We look forward to welcoming you to our city. The craic will be mighty.

Do I need extra car insurance if I bring my vehicle to Northern Ireland?

You should always carry a valid driver’s licence and proof of vehicle insurance when you drive. Additional insurance is generally not required if travelling from The Republic of Ireland but please check with your insurer.

Remember that speed and distance traffic information is in miles per hour rather than kilometres once you cross the border. Please adjust your speed accordingly.

Further information can be found here: Driving in Northern Ireland – Discover Northern Ireland

Cash and contactless payment.

In Northern Ireland, the currency is pound sterling (£). The vast majority of places will not accept cash payment in Euros; however contactless payment is widely accepted.

Belfast offers a range of excellent shopping experiences, blending modern retail with local culture. For those seeking high-end fashion and designer labels, Victoria Square is a must-visit.

Is it necessary to tip in restaurants?
