Tourism Ireland is delighted to bring 129 top international tourism buyers from 14 markets to Northern Ireland this week for Meet the Buyer 2025 in conjunction with Tourism NI.

This is a key event in the industry calendar and a great opportunity for our local tourism partners to connect with international tour operator partners, who bring valuable tourists to Northern Ireland and the island of Ireland.

Ahead of the workshop the tour operators took part in themed familiarisation trips exploring our culture and heritage, food produce, visitor experiences and spectacular scenery.
