    Belfast Waterfront / Ulster Hall

    Appendix B Ulster Hall - Programming Policy 1. Introduction The Ulster Hall will reopen in March 2009 following a major refurbishment. This is the second phase of the refurbishment work (Phase I 2005-06) and will see major changes to the venue including: Ulster Orchestra taking residency in the venue Addition of interpretive displays Launch of an education and community outreach programme Opportunity for the venue to actively programme and promote a range of events. Since 2004 the venue has been managed alongside Belfast Waterfront and it is envisaged that existing expertise within the Waterfront staff structure will inform and direct the relaunch of the Ulster Hall. This document addressed the programming policy for the ‘new’ Ulster Hall, identifying the changes in the venue’s operation and management and taking into account the overall marketplace in which the venue operates. 2. Context This policy is based on the following assumptions about how the Ulster Hall will operate in the future: A receiving house and programming venue Programming will have a mix of commercial and developmental objectives Opportunity for business use of the venue will be exploited In-house PA and lighting facilities will be available Premises will be licensed – alcohol consumption permitted in the main space for standing concerts An improved environment – front of house facilities, seating, dressing rooms Hire charges will need to be set appropriately to reflect these changes in order to compete within the market, whilst acknowledging a previously loyal client base 90683 - 1 - 3. Historical and Current Position Historical Position Typically the Ulster Hall has hosted around 150 events each year.

    POP016 Belfast LOCAL DEVELOPMENT PLAN 2020-2035 Open Space, Sport and Outdoor Recreation Topic Paper December 2016 Executive Summary Context Good quality open space makes our city an attractive and healthier place to live. Planning Policy 8 ‘Open Space, Sport and Recreation (PPS 8) defines open space as “all open space of public value, including not just land, but also inland bodies of water such as rivers, canals, lakes and reservoirs which offer important opportunities for sport and outdoor recreation and can also act as a visual amenity.” The typology of open space of public value ranges from parks and gardens to outdoor sports facilities, play parks, greenways, urban green spaces, community gardens and cemeteries. Open space can perform a multitude of functions, for example well-appointed open spaces can attract investment in cities which have balanced urban development with green infrastructure. The variety in the urban scene can have positive impacts on the landscape as well as providing good places to work, live and visit. These high urban quality spaces can support regeneration, improve quality of life for communities as well as promote health and wellbeing. Open space has a strategic function by helping to define an area, create a sense of place as well as create linkages between Cities and its rural hinterlands. Sensible, strategic land use planning can balance both the environmental function of open space to encourage biodiversity and the maintenance of ecosystems but can also deliver outdoor recreational needs of communities’

    BBC Music Booklet Celebrating 80 Years of Music.Pdf

    Celebrating Years of Music A Serenade to Music “We are the music-makers And we are the dreamers of dreams…” (Arthur William Edgar O’Shaughnessy, Ode) The story of BBC Northern Ireland’s involvement in nurturing and broadcasting local musical talent is still in the making. This exhibition provides a revealing glimpse of work in progress at the BBC’s Community Archive in documenting the programmes and personalities who have brought music in all its different forms to life, and looks at how today’s broadcasters are responding to the musical styles and opportunities of a new century. It celebrates BBC NI’s role in supporting musical diversity and creative excellence and reflects changes in fashion, technology and society across 80 years of local broadcasting. “ Let us celebrate the way we were and the way we live now. Much has been achieved since 2BE’s first faltering (and scarcely heard) musical broadcast in 1924. Innovation has Let us celebrate the ways we will be... been a defining feature of every decade from early radio concerts in regional towns and country halls to the pioneering work of Sean O’Boyle in recording traditional music and Sam Hanna Bell’s 1950s programmes of Belfast’s Let us count the ways to celebrate. street songs.The broadcasts of the BBC Wireless Orchestra and its successors find their contemporary echo in the world-class performances of the Ulster Orchestra and BBC NI’s radio and television schedules continue to Let us celebrate.” reverberate to the diverse sounds of local jazz, traditional and country music, religious services, brass bands, choirs, (Roger McGough - Poems of Celebration) contemporary rock, pop and dance music.
