Awaken your Giant Spirit

  1. All Events
    Plan ahead - check out the full list of events happening in the Causeway Coast and Glens over the coming months
  2. Royal Portrush Golf Club
    We know a thing or two about sporting events in the Causeway Coast and Glens. For a small place, we pack a big punch. Some of the biggest events on the sporting calendar happen here. And just look at that setting! Don’t say you never got a good tip.
  3. Food & Drink Events
    The Causeway Coast and Glens is fast building a reputation for its food and drink. And our chefs and artisan producers know how to showcase all. Time your break to coincide with one of our festivals. Sample it for yourself. One taste and you’ll know why everybody’s so excited.
  4. Family Events
    You’ll be pleased to hear we know how to keep kids entertained. ‘We’re bored’ is not something you’ll hear when you holiday in the Causeway Coast and Glens. Watch out for pirates, enjoy all the fun of the Lammas Fair and be dazzled by fireworks at your favourite seaside resort.
  5. Arts & Theatre Events
    Don’t you just love live performances? They’re so uplifting. From music and dance, to comedy and tragedy you’ll be enthralled by the talent on show in the Causeway Coast and Glens. And it’s not all indoors, during the summer months we like to keep your entertained with some street theatre.
  6. Music Events
    Winter, spring, summer or fall, you’ll find someone playing a tune in the Causeway Coast and Glens. Look out for pub based sessions and seaside stages, festivals in the fields and songs on the prom. And if your musical tastes are a bit more formal, we can do that too.
