    Down District has a rich cultural heritage as well as a range of places of interest and venues for cultural activity. Its world-renowned scenic beauty attracts thousands of visitors from around the world each year.

    Down District Council's Cultural Strategy sets out a cultural vision for the people of Down that draws on the knowledge, skills, talents, and natural assets of the District. It gives everyone in the community an opportunity to participate and enjoy a diversity of cultural and creative activity. This kind of activity also makes an important contribution to the District’s economy through tourism and job creation.
