The new outdoor event space, conference facilities and viewing tower were constructed as part of the project funded through the European Peace III Shared Spaces Programme, which was delivered by Mid Ulster District Council and STEP.
The project comprised a number of major elements including construction of the new events space at the Hill of the O’Neill and civil engineering works to provide a linear path around Dungannon.

Designed by Coleraine-based architects, G M Design Associates, the project also involved major redevelopment works to refurbish and extend single-storey council-owned garages into an indoor and outdoor events space with a viewing tower that has a commanding 360° view of the surrounding area.
On completion of the nine month construction project, Mid Ulster District Council are able to host a wide range of public events, weddings, conferences and exhibitions.
