So the Chilli Fest Belfast is back for another year of fun, food and entertainment for all. Run under the umbrella of the 11th Open House Festival at the Cathedral Quarter Belfast, this years line-up promises to be a start studded affair. All we need now is for the rain to stay away in order to let everyone come out an play. If you plan on doing a little sampling of food during the Fiery Food Fair, I would strongly advise that you leave a toilet roll in your fridge before leaving as it can both sooth a sore head on your return and give you a much welcome relief should you need to visit the loo!
Don’t forget that the amazing Jackson Cage will be playing on the Saturday night and while this is a paid event, many of the other gigs (in particular the Friday night) are free, so gather your family and come down to Belfast.
For more details on the main events, check out the 11th Open House Festival Website.

For those of you in need of something fun and exciting to do with your kids before it is time to go back to school, then why not treat them to an afternoon in the Build a Bear Factory in Belfast. I am not quite sure what there magic formula is but this place is always busy and the kids really love it. They get to pick a bear, its clothes, name and then go about building it in this purpose build bear assembly store. just be warned that it is not cheap but if your kids are like mine, what they create is something they will cherish for the rest of there lives.
The store is located in the beautiful Victoria Square shopping complex right in the heart of Belfast.

Saturday 15th August 2009 will definitely go down as a night to remember. As host to the Tall Ships, the atmosphere in Belfast was already at fever pitch with lots of street entertainment, stalls, fund for all the family and then to top it all the magnificent Jasckon Cage graced the stage at Clarendon Quay to play an amazing set.
This highly talented band from Northern Ireland have matured incredibly since I last saw them featured on UTV Live at the Limelight. They were extremely well rehearsed and their music rocked the crowd who enjoyed every chord and lyric from this incredible group.
A first for the band was a requested an completly deserved encore and as management of the Tall Ships event ran round to make sure they could play one more song before the fireworks light up the night sky, the crowd continued to chant for more.
Their next gigs are at the City of Song Festival in Derry on 25th September and then the ChilliFest Belfast on 26th. For more details, checkout their website, Facebook, Bebo, MySpace or Twitter links.

Why not treat yourself the next time you travel to Belfast by staying in the newly opened and luxuourous Fitzwilliam Hotel.
The hotel is the first exploration into the field of building by June Burgess who is an established and well know Chartered Landscape Architect. Unlike many buildings the approach for The Fitzwilliam was to design and build a hotel with the focus being on design. Situated next door to the Grand Opera House this stunning building looks right at home and affords it’s guests a great launchpad to get out and explore the marvels Belfast has to offer.
The hotel has a very contemporary feel with 130 rooms designed to be elegant, comfortable and luxurious. Each room boasts desigber textures and fabrics, crisp White Egyptian
linen, duck down feather pillows and quilts and cd players with the essential mp3/iPod connections.
With a delightful restaurant and great bar this hotel is fast becoming one of the notable places to stay, eat and drink when in Belfast.
