Lavery’s is Belfast’s oldest family-owned pub, at the heart of the city’s social life for almost 100 years. Perfectly located a short distance from both the city centre and the vibrant Queen’s Quarter, it’s a versatile, lively entertainment venue with the charm of a traditional Irish pub. With four bars offering food, live sport and free entertainment, two roof terraces, a street-level beer garden and Northern Ireland’s largest pool room, Lavery’s offers something for everyone.

Tickets are flying out for Pints, Punks & Paramilitaries on Saturday 19th September.

After another sold-out double decker, Donzo is back on the road, and the next bus is already filling up fast.

Before he was named Wanderlust’s Top UK Tour Guide, Paul “Donzo” Donnelly spent four years working the door at Lavery’s during Belfast’s ceasefire years.

Punks, politicians, students, paramilitaries. Donzo had a front-row seat to a city changing around him, all from the doorway of one of Belfast’s best-known pubs.

Now he’s taking those stories back onto the road.

Pints, Punks & Paramilitaries is 90 minutes of Belfast history, music, nightlife, characters and stories you’re unlikely to hear on any other city tour.

And, naturally, there’s a pint waiting for you at the end of it.

Saturday 19th September
Departs Brew+Ferment

SKINTY IS BACK 👹

Skinty returns to Lavery’s - a student night built around live music, DJs and actually having something to do…

This time around, we’re putting students at the heart of the night. Working alongside Live Music Society, the Back Bar will become Skinty’s live music hub, with student-run open mics, emerging bands and a space for new Belfast talent to get up and play. Whether you’re in a band, play solo, want to jump on an open mic or just to find some good new music, this is the place for it.

But Skinty isn’t just a gig night. Across Lavery’s there’ll be DJs, karaoke, darts, and b**r pong, alongside cheap drinks and pizza offers. Catch a band, have a pint, get involved in the open mic, head upstairs for a DJ, white wash your mate in pool, or make a questionable appearance at karaoke.

Built with students and for people who love music….no dress-up themes & cheesy club playlists on repeat.

Back Bar open mics kick off from 7-9 before we give the stage to the bands, Front Terrace DJs on from 8pm…and it’s FREE IN

The first Skinty is back from the 22nd September, running every Tuesday. See ye there ⚠️

BACK BY POPULAR DEMAND: Pints, Punks, & Paramilitaries with Donzo.

After the huge success of our Fleadh bus tours, Pints, Punks & Paramilitaries is back for a special pre-Stiff Little Fingers edition.

Before he was named Wanderlust’s Top UK Tour Guide, Paul “Donzo” Donnelly spent four years working the door at Lavery’s during Belfast’s ceasefire years.

From punks to politicians, students to paramilitaries, Donzo had a front-row seat to one of the most fascinating periods in Belfast’s recent history, including the city’s legendary punk scene and the characters who passed through its pubs, clubs and streets.

Jump on the bus for a 90-minute tour through Belfast’s history, music, nightlife and transformation, told through the eyes of someone who watched it unfold from the doorway of one of the city’s most famous pubs.

Part history lesson, part storytelling session and part love letter to Belfast.

And because it’s SLF day, we’ll have you back at Lavery’s in plenty of time for a pint (or two) before heading on to the gig.

Saturday 22nd August

Departs from Brew+Ferment beside Lavery's.

Guided bus tour + pint in Lavery’s at the end of the tour are included in your ticket price.
