Belfast pilots reusable cups in major venues to eliminate two million plastic cups yearly.

Belfast is launching a 12-month pilot to replace single-use plastic cups with reusable ones in major venues like the Waterfront Hall, SSE Arena, and Oh Yeah Centre, aiming to remove two million plastic cups and 40 tons of waste annually. North Down Marquees will handle the delivery, collection, and cleaning of the cups, with the SSE Arena set to implement the scheme first in mid-January. This initiative, supported by Visit Belfast, is the first of its kind in the UK and Ireland.
