Toals Bookmakers Opening Times
Toals Bookmakers operates over 55 betting shops across Northern Ireland, making it the region's largest independent bookmaker. Most Toals shops open from 9:00 AM to 8:30 PM Monday to Saturday, with shorter Sunday hours in the few branches that trade on Sundays.
Sunday opening in Northern Ireland is governed by the Betting, Gaming, Lotteries and Amusements (Northern Ireland) Order 1985, which historically restricted Sunday trading for betting shops; recent legislative changes allow Sunday opening with conditions. Check the individual Toals shop page above for the exact Sunday hours.
Toals Bookmakers — Family History
Toals was founded in 1932 by Bernard Toal in the village of Crossmaglen, County Armagh. Almost a century later the business is still family-owned, run by the third and fourth generations of the Toal family.
From a single rural shop the chain has grown into Northern Ireland's biggest independent bookmaker, with over 55 high-street branches and an online sportsbook. Toals has long been a sponsor of greyhound racing at Drumbo Park in County Down and the Toals Bookmakers Festival at the Curragh.

Toals has its strongest coverage in Belfast city centre, the Falls Road and Shankill Road areas, Derry, Lisburn, Newry, Armagh and the Mid-Ulster towns of Cookstown, Dungannon and Magherafelt. Many shops are within easy walking distance of Translink Metro and Goldline bus stops.
Sunday Trading and Northern Ireland Holidays
Northern Ireland licensing law treats Sunday betting-shop trading differently from the Republic of Ireland. Toals shops that open on Sundays generally trade with reduced hours from noon to 6:00 PM, although the majority of shops still close fully on Sundays in line with local custom.
Toals shops close on Christmas Day, Good Friday, Easter Sunday and the Twelfth of July (a Northern Ireland public holiday). All shops are open on St Patrick's Day (17th March), the May, late May and August public holidays, Boxing Day (26th December) and New Year's Day, often with reduced bank-holiday hours.
Northern Irish Heritage
Family-run since 1932, with deep ties to the Northern Irish horse and greyhound racing community.
Personal Service
Independent bookmaker known for friendly local shops where staff still know regulars by name.
Competitive Racing Odds
Toals is well-regarded for early-price guarantees and best-odds-guaranteed concessions on Irish and UK racing.
Strong Northern Ireland Coverage
Shops across Belfast, Derry, Lisburn, Newry, Bangor and the Mid-Ulster towns.
