The Holiday World Show
2016 is in its 27th
year. It
showcases the very best in travel, where to go, what to do, that satisfies the
avid explorer, or a restful retreat, family fun, or celebratory tour. A buzzing
atmosphere in both Belfast and Dublin kept the girls busy, welcoming the trade
and potential visitors to the stand. The team presented the attractions to
experience, the variety of accommodation, places to eat, cafes, restaurants and
spectacular scenery to view. On Saturday in Dublin, the queues were streaming
in to meet the exhibitors. Prize draws featured at most of the stands, this
gave us the opportunity to converse with the broad range of potentially
interested visitors that may choose Inishowen as their “must see and explore
“destination. Prizes were kindly donated by members of Inishowen Tourism to
highlight “what’s on offer” here in the Peninsula over the three days in each
location. The added attraction of Ireland's Wild Atlantic Way and specifically
Malin Head at the start of the road trip has heightened the interest in
potential visitors coming up “North”. Exploring the rugged west coast, from the
tip of Donegal has never been more appealing.
