We travelled over from England to see Emmy Lou Harris at The Waterfront and were really impressed. It's an excellent venue and boasts some of the comfiest seats with the greatest amount of leg room of any that I've been too (and that's quite a few!). The accoustics are superb and looking around there was not one seat where you... More

Great venue in heart of Belfast , very friendly and helpful staff. Booking tickets is easy at front desk no fuss or long queues. I have been to a few corporate events events and the food was great. Haven't eaten in the restaurant.

I have been to the Waterfront Hall on so many occasions because I love it. Great for concerts and shows because warmer, more intimate atmosphere compared to the Odyssey. Staff friendly, lovely place to visit. Highly recommended

I do enjoy concerts here however there is quite often a problem with sound. the toilets are very inconvenient for wheelchair users if you are attending anything in any of the smaller studios. the seats in the bar are cery uncomfortable and I think charging an administration fee on top each ticket price and not per booking is ridiculous.

We visited here last night whilst watching the Scottish Power Pipe Band perform and found the venue to be very modern, clean and comfortable. It's very easy to get too and we walked here from the City Centre. The prices were also quite reasonable in the bar which was a pleasant surprise.

went to see Billy Connolly last night and it was the first time that I have visited this venue. I was very surprised. The bar reasonably priced and the whole building spotlessly clean with efficient well mannered staff. The no food or drink in the auditorium presents some people with a problem however it prevents filthy lazy people from leaving... More

The Waterfront hall is just great and puts on some fabulous attractions. I remember when it was built and thought we would never be able to sustain it but thank goodness I was wrong. Nice area too to walk about.
