Belfast Brunch Co. returns to Ballymena with charity party in aid of Northern Ireland Hospice

Fantastic fun at the Belfast Brunch Co. Party in 2025! The event returns next month to Tullyglas Hotel in Ballymena.

Belfast Brunch Co. will return to Ballymena on Friday 13 March 2026, bringing its high-energy brunch party to the Tullyglass House Hotel in support of Northern Ireland Hospice and its Children’s Hospice services.

The adults-only event follows strong public demand after £21,000 was raised during last year’s fundraiser, with organisers promising to bring the feel-good night back to the town.

Charity brunch party returns to Ballymena

Known for its viral R&B and singalong events, Belfast Brunch Co. is promising what it describes as a “wildly popular party-for-a-purpose” for its second consecutive year in Ballymena.

Guests can expect an evening of live DJ sets and dancefloor anthems, with music provided by Belfast DJ and producer Blasé alongside club favourite and radio personality JON BOI.

The event is sponsored by The Scenic Inn, Ballymena, Causeway Credit Union (BCCU), Change for Life Gym and Tullyglass Hotel, with additional new sponsors this year including A Aesthetics, Bperfect and Carrick Competitions.

Supporting over 4,000 people across Northern Ireland

Funds raised will support the work of Northern Ireland Hospice, a local charity providing specialist palliative care for more than 4,000 babies, children and adults each year.

Julie Martin, Community Outreach Fundraiser for NI Hospice, said:

“This is your chance to experience all the legendary party vibes while making a real difference. Every ticket sold helps us provide vital care and support to more than 4,000 babies, children and adults across Northern Ireland each year.

“NI Hospice would like to thank this year’s new event sponsors – A Aesthetics; Bperfect; and Carrick Competitions – as well as returning supporters BCCU, Change for Life Gym, The Scenic Inn, and Tullyglass House Hotel. This event would not be possible without the generosity of these community businesses.

“This isn’t just brunch – it’s the ultimate party experience. Good vibes. Great music. An incredible cause. So grab your friends, grab your tickets and be part of a night that truly means something. Party for a purpose – and don’t miss out!”

Northern Ireland Hospice operates Somerton House, its adult In-Patient Unit which opened in 1981, and Horizon House, its children’s In-Patient Unit which opened in 2001. In 2024/25, there were 237 admissions at the adult unit.

More than 90% of care is delivered in people’s homes through seven specialist clinical Community Teams. In 2024/25, the charity supported 3,364 patients and their families in communities across Northern Ireland, with Specialist Community Nurses carrying out 13,433 visits to enable people to receive care at home, surrounded by loved ones.

During the same period, over 333 babies and children, along with their parents and extended families, received specialist clinical, practical nursing, emotional and psychological support. The organisation is the only Children’s Hospice in Northern Ireland.

Northern Ireland Hospice has 700 volunteers supporting its services and operates 28 Hospice shops across Northern Ireland. In 2024/25, £19.5 million was required to deliver its services, with the majority of funding coming from community support. The charity has said it continues to face financial pressures due to rising energy costs and the wider cost-of-living crisis.
