Where does the Northern Ireland Assembly meet?

Stormont is the meeting place because the Northern Ireland Assembly sits at Parliament Buildings on the Stormont Estate in Belfast, the designated home of Northern Ireland’s devolved legislature. This building and estate have long been associated with Northern Ireland’s government since devolution. The other locations are for different parts of the UK: Westminster in London houses the UK Parliament, Holyrood in Edinburgh houses the Scottish Parliament, and Cardiff Bay hosts the Welsh Parliament (Senedd). So Stormont is the correct location for the Northern Ireland Assembly.
