3 things we are looking forward to this week
Red Sail Room launch event
Adelphi Hotel, Portrush
The Red Sail Room launch is this week. This is a brand-new restaurant situated in the heart of Portrush. Red Sail Room is the signature Italian dining experience at Marine & Lawn’s newest hotel, Portrush Adelphi. Keep an eye out on Belfast Times instagram for our experience.
Eurovision Song Contest
The Grand Final of the Eurovision Song Contest 2025 will take place in St. Jakobshalle, Basel, on Saturday 17 May with Semi-Finals on Tuesday 13 and Thursday 15 May. Who’ll be watching? We will for sure!
International Museum Day
18 May
International Museum Day is celebrated on 18th May. It’s an opportunity and reminder for us to explore the cultural heritage preserved in museums and galleries. From art and history to science and technology, museums offer a window into the past, present, and future, inspiring curiosity, creativity, and learning for people of all ages. Our most recent museum visit was actually a cluster of windmills and museums just outside Amsterdam, Zaanse Schans.

Here in Belfast the Ulster Museum is always well worth a visit, and we also particularly love the Folk and Transport Museum. Get off the train at Cultra and it’s a short walk away. You can also get access directly from the North Down coastal path every weekend.
Have a great week.
