PCCS Social Event Venue

The Dark Horse

£22.38pp ~ Starts at 7pm ~ 30 Hill Street, Belfast BT1 2LB

Located in the heart of the Cathedral Quarter, Belfast’s most vibrant and popular cultural district, The Dark Horse offers a unique and atmospheric setting for our Social Event after the PCCS Conference on Thursday 14th May 2026.
 
This iconic venue is celebrated for its eclectic interior of salvaged architectural pieces and its famous courtyard, featuring world-class street art and historic charm. It provides the perfect backdrop to unwind and network within the city’s most bustling and energetic neighbourhood.

About the Venue

Protected by earth ramparts and the city walls, the area where the Dark Horse now stands was convenient to the old iron foundry, the pottery, the whiskey merchants and the Brown Linen Hall. Appreciate the superb décor and special atmosphere with beautiful antique mirrors, Belfast furniture and artefacts from some of the city’s most famous hotels and buildings from bygone times – providing a rather rare and unique glimpse of Belfast’s historical past.
​
Please join us at the Dark Horse for a complimentary welcome drink, an evening of live music and delicious street food from a local NI vendor. Click here to book your ticket for the PCCS ATG Conference, and don't forget to add your Social Event ticket in the "Add-Ons" section!
