“We know that our food and drink experiences are world class, now we want everyone else to know too”

Tourism NI is excited to announce our involvement in Taste the Island:
A Celebration of Ireland’s Food and Drink – an eight week showcase of our fabulous food and drink which will run across September, October and November 2019.

2019 is the first of a three-year commitment, delivered in conjunction with our partners at Tourism Ireland and Failte Ireland. The 8 week programme will build on the success of the 2016 Year of Food & Drink and coincidesas we celebrate Northern Ireland winning ‘Best Food Destination’ at the International Travel & Tourism Awards 2018/19.

The all island celebration will provide to visitors, both domestic and international, compelling reasons to visit Northern Ireland through the promotion of festivals and events, high quality local produce and authentic food and drink experiences. Taste the Island aims to enhance our food and drink reputation by showcasing our high quality produce and experiences, as well as assisting in seasonal extension and regional distribution.

Tourism NI is inviting businesses, networks and individuals interested in providing tourists with a food or drink experience to attend workshops in their local area to find out how they can get involved in ‘Taste the Island’.

These workshops have been organised to inform the sector about this exciting food and drink initiative, providing them with the opportunity to shape the development of a programme of events and experiences for 2019 and beyond.

Workshop details:
Thursday 30th May 11:00-13:15 – Clandeboye Lodge Hotel, Bangor
Friday 31st May 14:00-16:15 – Hill of the O’Neill & Ranfurly House, Dungannon
