What to do in Belfast!

Me and about 8 friends got some cheapish tickets to Belfast from East Midlands Airport in the UK, we leave 7AM on Saturday and return 10pm on Sunday.

We need ideas about what we should do! A few are teetotalers so mainly things to do/see in the day would be good, also as we're only there for one night we probably don't want to be hungover for the Sunday and miss out on other things, however if there are any good places to check out at night, please tell all!

Thank you!

    Check out the black taxi tours for things to do during the day. The murals are pretty interesting and offer a good bit of history.

    The Crown Bar (also restaurant) is a bit of a landmark.

    Belfast Castle was a bit of a let down, in my opinion. It's not even really a castle. I think it was built in the 1860s (the original was burnt down)... but it was free to go there when I went (2005ish), so you're not out anything but time if you want to check it out.

    Also, you might consider heading up the coast to Giant's Causeway if you've never been. It's pretty breathtaking.

    The zoo is pretty nice! Also, get some food at The Bus Stop.
