“The Friendship Four Tournament celebrates the Boston/Belfast Sister city agreement by helping to foster stronger cultural, economic, and academic relationships between Northern Ireland and America. Using amateur sport, it creates opportunities to unite communities, providing a conduit to revitalise the cultural ties between America and Northern Ireland”
Belfast
Northern Ireland’s capital city is home to the Titanic Museum (#1 Tourist Attraction in the World 2016), HBO’s Game of Thrones and a rich cultural history. A short drive from the Giant’s Causeway and home to countless fantanstic hotels, Belfast is a great place to visit
Added to that it’s the location for the SSE Arena: home of the Belfast Giants ice hockey team and of the Friendship Four.
