• heritage skills and craft demonstrations
• craft fair
• local food
• traditional children’s games, including a treasure hunt
• live music
• a history harvest to share stories, memories and artefacts of North Belfast
• stories from the past 250 years all about the house, once the Poorhouse of Belfast 

Parking at Clifton House will be limited to disabled parking only on the day. We encourage the use of public transport. Or, there is free on-street parking and paid car parks in the local area.
