Party Bike Tour Belfast: Cathedral Quarter & City Hall

Pedal past four of Belfast's landmarks without stopping traffic

A party bike tour of Belfast takes groups of 6 to 90 on a pedal-powered 16-seater through the city centre, passing St. Anne's Cathedral, Belfast City Hall, the Cathedral Quarter and the Albert Memorial Clock with a live English-speaking guide. The bike moves on easy-pedal technology so as few as four people can power it, and onboard chargers let you photograph the route as you go. The tour runs about an hour and departs from the Surf Shack, a warm indoor meeting space with mirrors and a mechanical surfboard to warm up beforehand.

The Experience

The tour starts at the Surf Shack, a dedicated indoor space where your group gathers before the ride — there are toilets, mirrors and a mechanical surfboard to get moving before you board the bike. Once everyone's on the 16-seater party bike, the pedalling begins. The easy-pedal patented technology means the bike moves smoothly even if only four people are actively pedalling, so nobody's left straining while others coast.

The route takes you past St. Anne's Cathedral, which began construction in 1899 and gained its Spire of Hope in 2007; Belfast City Hall, the civic heart opened in 1906 and ringed with memorials to the city's history; the Cathedral Quarter, a developing neighbourhood centred on Talbot Street; and the Albert Memorial Clock at Queen's Square, completed in 1869 and one of Belfast's most recognizable landmarks. A live guide narrates the stops as you pedal through the city centre.

Onboard power chargers mean you can top up your phone as the bike moves, so you won't miss a chance to capture the landmarks or the group moment. The whole tour runs about an hour. Groups range from six people up to 90 across multiple bikes, and the operator runs six party bikes most weekends.

What’s included

Is this one for you?An hour is short enough to fit into the rest of your day, but long enough to pedal past four major landmarks and feel the city move beneath you without needing a full afternoon. The easy-pedal technology means you're not fighting the bike if your group has mixed fitness levels.
