The next Borderlands event in Belfast is tomorrow Tuesday, 9 June | 7.30pm 📍

VENUE UPDATE: We're moving next door to the Marble Lounge, upstairs in the Errigle Inn.

As we have done for the past 3 years, this Borderlands will align with the themes of Day of Reflection — held every year on the 21st June, the longest day of the year. We will be reflecting on our past and our future as a society.

Our panel will feature people born after the Good Friday Agreement or who moved here after it was signed. With music from Beyond Skin, a charity that platforms migrants and artists who often have found their way here after fleeing trauma in their home countries.

The event will also feature a conversation between two people who'd previously found themselves on either end of the Drumcree dispute, but who now are firm friends. Lee Lavis is an ex British soldier and Dessie Trainor is a community activist in Portadown and is very much part of the Garvaghy Road community. During the Troubles Dessie’s Mum was killed by loyalists and later on two other brothers were killed. Their story shows us what hope looks like.

Come along to the Errigle Inn for a 7.30pm start upstairs in the Marble Room.
