North & West Coast Links based in Moycullen has taken part in Tourism Ireland’s drive to grow golf visitor numbers from around the world at the International Golf Travel Market (IGTM) in Lisbon.
Twenty-one golf and tourism operators from Ireland joined Tourism Ireland at the event for the global golf travel community, which brings together more than 1,300 golf travel professionals from around the world.
The companies from Ireland engaged in four days of one-to-one, pre-scheduled appointments, as well as networking sessions, which provided a valuable opportunity to negotiate and exchange vital contracts for 2024.
Sinéad Murray, Tourism Ireland’s Acting Head of Business Partnership, said that IGTM is a fantastic opportunity to showcase Ireland’s world-class golf.
“This is just one element of Tourism Ireland’s busy promotional programme to encourage more golfers from around the globe to consider a holiday in Ireland,” she said.
“Our message is that Ireland offers international golfers the complete package – with some of the very best golf in the world, spectacular scenery and the warmest of welcomes.
“We’re also taking every opportunity to highlight the fact that The Open will return to Royal Portrush in 2025 and the Ryder Cup will take place at Adare Manor in 2027. Tourism Ireland will be pulling out all the stops once again to leverage the tourism potential of these prestigious sporting events in our important golf markets around the world.”
