What's On
Tom Hayes of Mowgli returns to La Roche to cook up something special over two nights, on Friday 13th and Saturday 14th March.
Brian’s Wines will once again be along for the ride, pouring a thoughtful selection of bottles from producers who make their wines naturally—free from pesticides, chemicals, and other nasties.
Our mouths are already watering at the prospect.

Live Performance | Amanda Fawn
24.04.26 — Doors from 7:30pm
"Amanda Fawn is fast on the rise..." (Our Belfast Music, Sept 2025)
Hailing originally from Philadelphia & living on the island of Ireland, Amanda’s music beautifully bridges the richness of American folk heritage with the authenticity and spirit of traditional Irish music, a reflection of her transatlantic life and sound. In February 2025 Amanda released her debut single "Moving On", followed shortly by her sophomore single "Trouble Child". Amanda was awarded the prestigious Cathedral Quarter Arts Festival Music Bursary in 2025, which supported the release of “I Am Carried” in October 2025.

'Water & Mud' by Simon Carter
07.05.26 — 21.05.26
We are delighted to present this body of paintings and drawings by Simon Carter. Spanning more than a decade, the works bear witness to his sustained and intimate engagement with the diminishing salt marshes of the North Essex coastline. The threshold where land meets water will resonate with Irish landscape enthusiasts, yet Carter approaches this terrain with a finely judged balance of abstraction and figuration. Familiar forms emerge through painterly motifs, revealing not only the gradual construction of the landscape but also the visible, considered processes through which the works themselves come into being.
Simon Carter is a co-founder of the British Contemporary Painting platform, and is represented by Messum's Gallery in London. We encountered Simon’s work recently at the F. E. McWilliam Gallery, where two of his paintings formed part of a wonderful exhibition drawn from the private collection of Lord and Lady Belmore. The forthcoming exhibition at La Roche House, Belfast offers a unique opportunity to see a substantial body of Simon's work in person, without the requirement for a ferry or a flight!
