TRALEE exiles in London have recalled their Christmas memories of home in a video campaign to showcase all that the town has to offer during the festive season.
Recorded in London, the nostalgic videos underline the key role that Kerry Airport plays in facilitating their seamless return home to Tralee at Christmas and throughout the year.
President of Tralee Chamber Alliance, Nathan McDonnell, said the past 22 months have shown that Tralee people living abroad have developed a deeper appreciation of home.
“Many people were unable to travel last Christmas and our thoughts are with those who might not get to travel home this year to enjoy the full festive experience with family and friends,” he said.
“These video postcards from London highlight the special place that Tralee has in the memories of so many people who no longer live in the town. We hope they get home soon to celebrate Christmas in Tralee and if not, thanks to Kerry Airport, we’re always close to them,” the chamber chief stated.
The videos of Tralee people in London, along with Christmas messages from local retailers, will be featured across the Tralee Chamber Alliance’s social media platforms from December 15 until Christmas Eve.
The campaign was commissioned by Tralee Chamber Alliance and produced by former President, John Drummey.
CEO of Tralee Chamber Alliance, Colette O’Connor, said: “2021 is about reconnecting and rediscovering what Christmas at home means to us, we are inviting people from across Kerry who are both living here and abroad to contact the Chamber and tell us what makes Christmas in Tralee special to them”.
