Four tourism businesses from Ireland have joined Tourism Ireland in London this week for Connections Luxury UK & Ireland – a three-day event which connects luxury hotels and travel businesses with over 100 global high-end travel buyers.
Connections Luxury UK & Ireland involves a series of bespoke one-to-one appointments, as well as more informal ‘icebreaker’ experiences which allow the luxury buyers and travel businesses to network. The event provides an excellent opportunity for the tourism businesses from Ireland to meet, and do business with, the influential luxury travel buyers in attendance.
David Boyce, Tourism Ireland’s Head of Business Events and Luxury, said: “Connections Luxury UK & Ireland is a fantastic platform to showcase the superb luxury tourism offering around Ireland – including our boutique hotels, castles and luxury resorts, as well as our top visitor attractions and rich culture and heritage, and not forgetting our superb culinary experiences.
“The format of bespoke one-to-one appointments and informal networking provides a valuable opportunity for our tourism partners from Ireland to connect with the luxury travel buyers – helping to secure a greater share of their business for Ireland in 2025 and beyond.”
