"The Start Of Another Busy Promotional Drive"

Tourism Ireland's head of North America, Alison Metcalfe, commented, "Our five-week TV campaign gets under way this week, targeting US travellers who're now considering where to go for their 2020 vacation. It heralds the start of another busy promotional drive for Tourism Ireland in the United States in 2020. We're confident that our extensive programme of high impact campaigns and promotions, targeting people with the greatest potential to travel to Ireland, will continue to grow US visitor numbers to the island of Ireland."
