Overview
3About Portadown
Portadown sits on the River Bann in County Armagh, about 24 miles southwest of Belfast, forming part of the Craigavon Urban Area with roughly 33,000 residents. The A3 connects directly to Belfast through Moira and Lisburn, while the A27 heads south to Armagh and the border counties. It's a handy stop for drivers coming from Dublin (139 km via A1/M1), Galway (259 km), or coastal spots like Portrush (118 km). The town's standout feature is the Millennium Court Arts Centre, cleverly converted from a 19th-century courthouse into a modern venue for theater and concerts.
