Custom House Square

                                           
 
Officially launched on 17th May 2005, Custom House Square is Belfast's premier outdoor event space.  At an investment of £4 million the square has been transformed, incorporating the history of the area as well as exciting new features animating the space.
 
Features such as 'The Speaker', a bronze life sized statue and 'The Hecklers', large copper based lights along the edge of the square, reflect the original use of the square as 'Speakers' Corner'.  The historic Calder Fountain, Belfast's first and oldest drinking fountain for Horses, has been expertly restored and now sits close to its original location beside the Custom House.
 
The Square is further enhanced with attractive lighting, a water feature that traces the course of the River Farset and a children's play area.
