Tall Ships Festival 2009
Event Dates : August 13th 2009
- August 16th 2009
The return of the Tall Ships to Belfast in August proved to be the biggest single event ever staged in Ireland, with the four-day maritime festival estimated to have been enjoyed by around 800,000 people. That means that more than half the population of Northern Ireland either passed through the Port or watched the 2009 Atlantic Tall Ship Challenge from the shoreline – twice the figure which was predicted at the formal pre-event launch at the Harbour Office in January.

Nomadic moves in to Hamilton Dock
A momentous stage in the restoration of SS Nomadic took place today as the ship moved into her new home at Hamilton Dock in Titanic Quarter, which, in a twist of fate, was used in her construction nearly a century ago. Led by Belfast Harbour and Titanic Quarter, the process has been more than 12 months in planning and paves the way for the start of Nomadic’s restoration work.
