The Belfast music scene has been quietly turning out hugely influential musical acts at an enviable rate since, well… forever. The vibrant city, with its famously industrial past has produced the likes of Van Morrison, David Holmes, The Undertones, Stiff Little Fingers, members of Thin Lizzy, James Galway, Gary Moore, Katie Melua and many others.
Belfast is also the home to the Ulster Symphony Orchestra. The city itself has inspired an astonishing number of songs, with artists from Orbital to James Taylor dedicating tracks to the city. The creative spirit flows freely through the city, and it is at the heart of this that Dawsons Belfast is based.
Our Belfast store is located on Royal Avenue, on the location of the former Marcus Musical Instruments store in the city’s Cathedral Quarter. This part of the city has become the creative hub of Belfast city centre. The area has received sizable investment from the Arts Council, and the majority of the Belfast music and arts festivals take place here. What this means is that just all of the city’s most exciting musical events happen in the immediate vicinity of the store.
This, of course, is entirely intentional. All Dawson music stores aim to serve and support musicians and the musical community, and the Dawsons Belfast shop is at the heart of this, as a musician’s haven, fulfilling all of your musical needs.
The Belfast Guitar Shop is simply the guitar store to visit in Belfast. With instruments and equipment spread over four floors, guitarists will find a huge selection of guitars from Gibson, Epiphone, Fender, Ibanez, Farida and more, along with amps and all of the accessories you might need.
Keyboard and piano players in Belfast will find their needs equally well served. A wide range of acoustic and digital pianos is stocked, from Yamaha, Roland, Kawai and more. The store is also the only authorised Nord dealer in Northern Ireland.

How big are upright pianos
Moden Upright pianos are usually between 110cm – 135cm in height, around 155cm wide and 60cm deep, the height being the major difference between models. You also have the old Mine piano at 70cm these are no longer made.
Upright pianos are popular because of their small footprint compared to a grand piano. While grand pianos may look more attractive, tall upright pianos are capable of producing a strong tone, wide dynamic range and better control in the keys and action than a small upright, Tall Uprights are usually only a few cms deeper and wider than shorter upright piano but will give you a much richer sound a good as most than a small Grands A small modern upright will have weight of 185kg a large one can exceed 235kg
