What's On in Belfast
Monday 15 June 2026
Monday nights in Belfast have a habit of proving everyone wrong, and June 15th is no exception. From thundering metal riffs to emotional post-hardcore confessions to one of the city's most beloved late-night institutions swinging its doors open for another week, there is a current running through the city tonight that is impossible to ignore. Whether you are lacing up boots for a gig or saving your energy for after midnight, Belfast has somewhere to be.
Highlights
Voivod + Midnight — Canadian prog-metal legends Voivod bring their labyrinthine, sci-fi-infused sound to the intimate Limelight 2, supported by the gloriously old-school blackened speed metal of Midnight — a pairing that should have every serious metal fan in the city rearranging their week. Doors open at 7:00pm, so arrive early to secure your spot on the floor and let the walls shake around you. Check the website for ticket prices before they vanish.
The Plot In You + Boundaries — Next door in the larger Limelight 1, The Plot In You deliver the kind of raw, confessional alternative rock that feels like someone has read your diary and set it to a huge, cathartic sound. With Boundaries along for the ride as support, this is a 7:00pm start that promises genuine emotional weight and a room full of people who mean every word they sing along to. Check the website for tickets and do not sleep on this one.
Playroom Mondays at Kremlin - £1 Entry & £3.50 Drinks — When the gigs wrap up, Kremlin — Belfast's iconic LGBTQ+ venue — throws open its doors for Playroom Mondays, and at £1 entry with drinks from £3.50, the only reason not to go is if you are already asleep. Kicking off at 10:00pm, it is the perfect place to dance away the working week with a crowd that knows how to have a genuinely good time. A Monday night institution, and proof that the city never quite runs out of reasons to stay out.
