Tuesday 22 September 2026 · This weekend · City guide
Tuesday nights in Belfast have a habit of surprising you, and this one is no different — the city is serving up laughs and atmosphere in equal measure. From the grand surroundings of Ulster Hall to the intimate energy of the Ulster Sports Club, there is something genuinely special waiting for you tonight. Pull on your jacket and get out there.
Highlights
Urzila Carlson — South African-born, New Zealand-adopted comedy powerhouse Urzila Carlson brings her sharp wit and irresistible warmth to the magnificent Ulster Hall at 7:00pm. Known for her hugely popular appearances on panel shows and her sold-out stand-up tours, she has a rare gift for making an entire room feel like they are in on the joke together. If you fancy an evening of proper belly laughs in one of Belfast's most beautiful venues, do not let this one slip past you — check the website for tickets before they are gone.
Dead Calm - Sign Crushes Motorist — Head down to the Ulster Sports Club at 7:30pm for what promises to be a thrillingly atmospheric night of post-rock and cinematic sound, as Dead Calm and Sign Crushes Motorist take to the stage together. Both acts deal in the kind of slow-building, emotionally charged music that fills a room and genuinely gets under your skin — this is the sort of double bill that dedicated music fans talk about for months afterwards. The Ulster Sports Club is the perfect setting for it: up-close, unpretentious, and buzzing with people who really care about live music. Check the website for ticket prices.
