Belfast is well connected by air. The city's two airports are Belfast City Airport (about 3 miles from Ormeau Road) and Belfast International (around 20 miles away). Direct flights arrive daily from London, Edinburgh, Amsterdam, and Dublin. From Belfast City Airport, take the Metro 600 bus or a taxi into the city centre, then hop on a local bus or taxi to Ormeau Park. From Belfast International, you can catch a Goldline or Ulsterbus coach into Belfast's city centre and transfer locally to the festival site.

Belfast is also easily reachable by train or coach. Lanyon Place Railway Station (formerly Belfast Central) and Great Victoria Street Station connect Belfast to Dublin and other cities. From either station, Ormeau Park is just a short taxi or bus ride away. Around the city, Translink buses 6C and 7A run down Ormeau Road and stop near the festival entrance. Several coach services from Dublin and other Irish towns arrive in central Belfast, allowing you to connect to the festival by local bus or taxi.

If you are driving, Belfast is accessed via the M1 motorway from Dublin or the A1 from Newry. From the west and north, the M2 and M3 lead into the city. Follow signs for Belfast City or Queen's Quarter and then onto Ormeau Road. Note that parking near Ormeau Park is limited on event nights, and local road closures may be in effect. Many people choose to park outside the city and use public transit or a taxi to reach the festival.

You can easily reach Belfast from Dublin by the Enterprise train or daily coach services. Arrivals from Scotland (air or ferry) also bring you near the city centre. Once you are in central Belfast, Ormeau Park is not far: about a 20-30 minute walk from Lanyon Place Station, or a quick local taxi. Late-night ride-shares (like Uber) and black cabs operate after the concerts to take you back to your hotel safely. Belfast's city centre is compact and pedestrian-friendly, so staying downtown means easy access to the festival each day.

Belfast offers a wide range of accommodation to suit any budget. Many fans stay in the city centre, the Queen's University area, or the Titanic Quarter - all of which are well-connected to Ormeau Road. You will find everything from luxury hotels and apartments to budget-friendly hostels and cozy B&Bs. Booking early is a good idea since summer weekends fill up quickly. If you prefer quieter surroundings, neighborhoods like Lisburn Road or East Belfast offer good public transport links to town. No matter where you stay, Belfast's efficient buses and taxis make it easy to get to Belsonic.
