Getting Here

  • We are situated in a pedestrianised, culturally vibrant area of the Cathedral Quarter in Belfast city centre. Some points of interest also situated on Gordon Street include the Harp Bar and the Discover Ulster-Scots Centre.

  • Oh Yeah is located in a largely pedestrian area. There are car parks within walking distance nearby. These include Corporation Street, Tomb Street and Exchange Street.

    Nearby EV charging stations can be found using this map with the closest only a 10 minute walk from Oh Yeah near Castlecourt Shopping Centre.

  • Belfast is served by many bus and train routes connecting us to every part of Northern Ireland and Ireland. Within the city, keep an eye out for the distinctive pink Translink Metro buses which serve the Belfast metropolitan area. Timetables can be found here.

    The closest train stations are Lanyon Place and York Street. Both are a 10-15 minute walk to the venue. The nearest bus stops are on Queen’s Square and High Street.

  • Local council scheme Belfast Bikes provides a great healthy, eco-friendly way to get around our city and Oh Yeah is conveniently located just around the corner from a docking station! All docking locations can be found here.

    There is also a standard bicycle parking rack located at the end of Gordon Street outside the 39 Gordon Street bar.
