Lyric Theatre
Located on the banks of the River Lagan, which runs through the city, the Lyric Theatre –more commonly known as the Lyric – is the foremost full-time production theatre in Belfast.
Queens Film Theatre
An annual audience in excess of 72,000 is testament to the sense of loyalty that has been inspired by this superb Belfast cinema over the past 40 years. Catching a movie here is far from what you’d get at your standard multiplex, with two screens between them seating more than 3,000 people allowing for an intimate film-going experience. The Queen’s Film Theatre shows a healthy mix of recent films and classics from the past, but a refined ambience doesn’t mean it takes itself too seriously - the programme organisers take care to present fun crowd pleasers such as the Rocky Horror Picture Show on a regular basis too.
