Explore Belfast Like KNEECAP: A Music Lover's Guide to the City

If you’re a fan of KNEECAP, the Irish-language rap trio whose powerful lyrics reflect Belfast NI’s political and cultural landscape, a trip to the city will feel like walking through their songs. From street murals to underground gigs, Belfast's music scene embodies the rebellious energy of KNEECAP band members. There’s no better way to explore it than by staying at The Harrison Hotel, a boutique hotel where music, art, and history come together.

Morning: Gaeltacht Quarter & Falls Road

Start your day in Belfast's Gaeltacht Quarter, where the Irish language and culture thrive. Begin at Cultúrlann McAdam Ó Fiaich, a vibrant arts centre that features Irish-language music, books, and cultural exhibitions.

As you stroll along Falls Road, you’ll see murals and graffiti art that echo the themes found in KNEECAP’s music—raw, political, and proudly local. This area is essential for anyone interested in KNEECAP's Belfast tour roots or exploring the real-life backdrop of their lyrics.

Enjoy lunch at Bia, a charming café that embraces the Irish-language lifestyle that the KNEECAP band so often celebrates in their lyrics and performances.

Afternoon: Film Locations & Language Classes

Spend your afternoon exploring KNEECAP film locations, many of which featured in their Sundance-acclaimed 2024 movie. These spots offer a glimpse into the neighborhoods and cultural forces that inspired their rise.

Next, dive deeper into the language of KNEECAP with a relaxed Irish lesson at The Points, where traditional music and a pint set the tone for cultural immersion. This is a must for fans attending the KNEECAP tour 2025 or following their story through music and film.

Evening: Pints, Music & Street Art

As night falls, head to Madden’s Bar, a KNEECAP favorite known for its rebellious spirit and authentic Belfast nightlife vibe. Expect live traditional tunes, pints of Guinness, and plenty of local character.

Later, explore venues where KNEECAP tickets have previously sold out: the Ulster Sports Club and The Telegraph Building. These iconic locations host the best of Belfast events and underground music culture. If you’re lucky, you might even catch a surprise gig as part of the KNEECAP 2025 tour.

Be sure to check online for upcoming music event tickets—you don’t want to miss a show while you’re in town.

The Harrison Hotel: A Music Lover’s Dream

End your day at The Harrison Hotel in the Queen’s Quarter—the perfect home base for anyone following the KNEECAP band experience. This artsy, boutique hotel blends historical design with edgy, modern decor. Many of the rooms are inspired by Irish creatives, and the hotel itself supports local street artists, just like those whose work appears in the band's music videos and promo shoots.
