Haver been here quite a few times. Last time was to see Jimmy Carr, excellent. Everytime I have been to the Waterfront I have had different seats and each time the seats have been good. The bar allowed you be pre pay for drinks so when there was an interval your drinks were left out for you so no queuing... More

Have visited the Waterfront on a couple of occasions, normally for entertainment functions. Has a great theatre for shows and bars are located in the circular frontage which give splendid views of the River Lagan and Titanic Quarter. A good area to be based as the Odyssey is on your doorstep.

Great venue and the fact that you can obtain a meal before any performances (along with wine of course) is an added bonus. Very well run/maintained and parking close by.

Visited here to see Reginald D Hunter on Saturday evening. This was only my 2nd visit to the Waterfront and was again impressed. All staff were very friendly and welcoming. Great location, just a couple of minutes from the city centre.

We travelled over from England to see Emmy Lou Harris at The Waterfront and were really impressed. It's an excellent venue and boasts some of the comfiest seats with the greatest amount of leg room of any that I've been too (and that's quite a few!). The accoustics are superb and looking around there was not one seat where you... More

Great venue in heart of Belfast , very friendly and helpful staff. Booking tickets is easy at front desk no fuss or long queues. I have been to a few corporate events events and the food was great. Haven't eaten in the restaurant.

I have been to the Waterfront Hall on so many occasions because I love it. Great for concerts and shows because warmer, more intimate atmosphere compared to the Odyssey. Staff friendly, lovely place to visit. Highly recommended

I do enjoy concerts here however there is quite often a problem with sound. the toilets are very inconvenient for wheelchair users if you are attending anything in any of the smaller studios. the seats in the bar are cery uncomfortable and I think charging an administration fee on top each ticket price and not per booking is ridiculous.
