Full list of coronavirus testing centres across the North

Back to News
5th Nov 2020

There are two ways to get a coronavirus test the North - by going to a test centre or getting a testing kit delivered to your home.

Both pathways are self-swab tests and will require a swab of the inside of the nose and back of the throat.

Testing for all symptomatic individuals can be booked through the www.gov.uk website.

At present, there are four fixed testing sites in Northern Ireland and several mobile and walk-in testing sites.

Belfastlive have put together a list of locations from the PHA.

Testing is currently conducted in fixed drive-through sites operating at:

  • SSE test centre, Odyssey Car park, Belfast BT3 9QQ

The PHA says: "Booking can be made for morning test slots from 6pm the previous day. Afternoon booking slots are released at 10am on the day of testing."
