History

The Belfast Wheel was brought to Belfast in partnership with Belfast City Council and the Department for Social Development.[1] It was operated by World Tourist Attractions.

It opened in November 2007 and operated seven days a week. Views right across Belfast and Belfast Lough could be seen.[2]

In May 2009, Belfast City Council voted to keep the big wheel on site for a further two years,[3] from 1 September 2009.[4] On 30 November 2009, the location of the Belfast Wheel again caused a row, resulting in the Lord Mayor of Belfast Naomi Long discussing the potential move of the Titanic Memorial before the 2012 anniversary.[5]

The Belfast Wheel closed for business on Sunday 11 April 2010. The operator, Great City Attractions, had announced a few weeks previously that it would be removed.[6]
