“This programme will help our tourism sector capitalise on these essential assets.

“We must ensure we are well-placed to meet and maximise demand in future years.

“This programme will help us meet those demands by supporting the development of a sustainable tourism economy.

He adds, “I encourage all forward-thinking, innovative providers to consider applying.”

“Phenomenal interest in NI Tourism Support programme.”

David Roberts, Director of Strategic Development at Tourism NI, says, “Tourism NI first introduced the programme last year and received phenomenal interest from the industry.

“The programme will help tourism providers develop new and attractive experiences that are in line with the Northern Ireland ‘Embrace a Giant Spirit’ experience brand and explore all that Northern Ireland has to offer.

“We welcome and encourage applications that bring new and advanced ways to deliver business safely, enhance the visitor experience, support demand and increase consumer confidence.
