Mid Ulster Tourism Experiences programme
Mid Ulster District Council is seeking new ideas from individuals and businesses for establishing a new tourism experience for the Mid Ulster area
Lough Neagh Partnership has been appointed by Mid Ulster District Council to spearhead a new initiative aimed at fostering the development and growth of tourism experiences in the Mid Ulster area.
The initiative will showcase everything that is unique about the area, especially its people and their stories, family history, cultural traditions and invaluable skills.
In partnership with Mid Ulster District Council and working with Tourism Northern Ireland, the organisation is calling for people that have an authentic experience that they would love to develop, to express their interest in the programme.
Who can apply?
From food producers to farmers, storytellers to fishermen, craft providers to activity providers - anyone with an experiential idea that could be developed to attract local, national and international visitors, should apply.
The project is open to everyone with an interest in tourism in Mid Ulster – those new to tourism and those with existing tourist focused businesses or hobbies.
Expressions of interest must be completed by 6 October 2023 and it is anticipated that, following a pilot, the successful experiences will be launched in March 2024.
The vision is that the project will create high quality authentic tourism experiences by recruiting potential participants who may be suitable for developing a bespoke experience or which might be suited to a collaborative approach with other businesses.
