Welcome to the historic Walled City of Derry~Londonderry

We are Visit Derry, the official tourist organisation for the city and region, inspiring you to visit, explore and experience our beautiful historic city.

Renowned for being Ireland’s only completely Walled City – and one of the finest examples of Walled Cities in Europe today – our 400-year-old Walls are a travel bucket list must!

We are home to the best festivals in the world (our Halloween festival was voted the best in the World by USA Today) and home to an amazing foodie offering.

Visit us to explore our award winning museums, hang out with the Derry Girls (mural) or enjoy a stay to explore two of the most internationally recognised driving routes on the island of Ireland; the Walled City where the Wild Atlantic Way meets the Causeway Coastal Route.
