Londonderry City
From ancient city walls to vibrant modern living, Londonderry’s got it all
Everything you need from banking hours to tourist information centres
Bank hours
Hours are generally Monday to Friday from 9.30am to 4.30pm with some open on Saturday morning. Automatic Teller Machines (ATMs) dispense cash at hundreds of locations including banks, garages, and shopping centres. Using a credit card in an ATM is an easy way of obtaining sterling if you are travelling from the Republic of Ireland or abroad.
Parking
Multi-storey and off-street car parks have hourly tariffs depending on location. On-street pay and display zones are clearly marked. Pay attention to restriction notices that display morning and evening rush hour clearways and bus lanes when in operation.
Pub Hours
Generally Monday to Saturday, 11.30am to 11pm, Sundays from 12.30pm to 10pm. Many bars in Londonderry have later opening hours on Thursday to Saturday. Children are not permitted on licensed premises. No alcohol may be served to under 18s.
Public Transport
Ulsterbus serves Londonderry, the whole of Northern Ireland and Belfast suburbs.
Shopping
City Centre shops generally open Monday to Saturday, from 9.30am to 5.30pm (Thursday until 9pm). Some larger stores open Sunday from 1pm to 5pm. Neighbourhood stores and garage forecourt convenience shops often open much longer, 24 hours in many cases.
