History Of The Lisburn Road

The Lisburn Road Business Association (LRBA) welcome you to the ‘Style Mile of Belfast’

The road was laid in 1817-19 and has grown to be one of the most thriving and unique shopping districts in Belfast and indeed Northern Ireland. There are more than 200 independent businesses on the Road and it is our aim to offer the widest range of goods and services anywhere in Ireland. When you visit, if you cannot find what you are looking for or just need some friendly directions, just look for any shop displaying the LRBA logo and we will be happy to offer assistance and recommendations.

Throughout the year we have various events planned. Street Theatre, fashion shows, Jazz in the Park, food festivals and live entertainment are all aimed to enhance the wonderful experience you will have every time you visit the Lisburn Road.

As Belfast’s premier shopping destination, you can enjoy shopping unique boutiques, some exclusive to the Lisburn Road, Belfast furniture and homeware retail outlets, art galleries and many other local businesses. Drop into one of the many coffee shops and cafes or enjoy a fine dining experience at a restaurant. With a plethora of shops and boutiques, the Lisburn road, Belfast has something for everyone. Find out more about our shops, restaurants and businesses, including products and services and opening hours.

Recently voted one of the top 5 shopping streets in the UK in the Google Street View 2011 awards, it cannot be denied that the Lisburn Road is a priceless part of Northern Ireland heritage. We should continue to shop locally and support our traders who offer something different and inspiring, something that can’t be provided in large high street and retail chains.

We hope you enjoy your visit to the Lisburn Road and don’t forget to check back for the latest news, offers and events.
