Road users are being advised to expect traffic disruption in Ballycastle from tomorrow, Friday 19th and on Saturday 20th July as the Red Bull Cliff Diving event taking place.
The event is due to begin at 4pm in Ballycastle Harbour and end at 7pm on both days, and spectators can view the diving from an accessible viewing area set up by the organisers on the beach.
Thousands of spectators are expected, it’s going to be very busy in the area, with local diversions in place and additional parking facilities which traffic marshals will encourage you to use.
Additional car park locations can be found by tapping or clicking here.
There will be police cones placed in areas where parking is prohibited, so please be mindful of where you park in the town and please do not block any roads or pavements used by pedestrians.
A recovery operation will be in place for those who choose to ignore the restrictions as any unnecessary congestion caused by parked vehicles may disrupt traffic further particularly emergency services, local residents and businesses who need access at all times.
For those who plan to attend please leave extra time for your journey if you intend to use the M2 Ballymena Bypass due to roadworks at that location.
