The Out to Lunch Arts Festival returns to Belfast in 2020 for its 15th year of music, comedy, theatre, literature and food.

The festival runs from 3-26 January, bringing much badly needed cultural bite to the longest, darkest month of the year.

Since 2006, Out to Lunch has been a companion festival to Cathedral Quarter Arts Festival in Belfast, running throughout the month of January.

With the celebrated Black Box Venue as its principle home, Out to Lunch offers up a hot meal and a comedy/ music/ spoken word performance during January lunchtimes, with a slightly larger scale event taking place in the evening.

Out to Lunch reguarly attracts thousands of people into Belfast's city centre at a time of year which is traditionally known to be quiet.
