Belfast Troubles Tour: Walls and Bridges
Overview
Troubles Tour: Walls and Bridges is one part walking tour, one part street theatre and 100% astounding. It entertains, engages and informs using original songs and lived experience to help you understand the day to day realities of the Troubles.
The tour brings history to life but not in chronological order — instead it builds an immersive picture of a city, its people and its conflicts through a powerful mix of education, storytelling and theatrics.
Participants will visit political murals on both sides of the divide, pass through heavily fortified security gates and stand at the Peace Walls. Along the way, an original song captures the turbulent reality of the times in a way that no history book can.
This tour goes beyond history. It reveals the culture, the humanity and the hidden stories that shaped this city — and the remarkable people who built bridges when others were building walls.
Ideal for anyone interested in history, culture and politics — and unforgettable for everyone.
