Discovering Ireland

The Hot Ticket: Derry

Discovering Ireland

When Cork made Lonely Planet’s Top 10 cities in 2010, we knew the city had well and truly arrived on the global traveller’s grid. In 2013, it’s Derry’s turn.

Northern Ireland’s second city isn’t just on Lonely Planet’s radar. Derry is the inaugural UK City of Culture, hosting Primal Scream on Mar 19, a visit from Dingle’s Other Voices from Feb 8-10, a graffiti jam with some of the world’s leading street artists in July, and even a point-to-point sailing race at the Peace Bridge.
