A special event, hosted by Fáilte Ireland, was held for those involved in the industry in the Tralee and North Kerry area and the gathering took place in the town centre Ashe Hotel in Tralee.

Over 40 tourism businesses attended the session just days after a similar event was held for tourism industry personnel in South Kerry.

One of the key speakers at the networking event was Fáilte Ireland official and Killarney native Veronica O’Connor and those in attendance got an opportunity to sit and chat and share ideas for the season ahead.
