At the core of the Know Limerick programme will be a network of local people coming together to share their local knowledge to help visitors make the most of their visit to Limerick. The programme will also feature a number of annual events, social media initiatives, a Visitor Attractions pass and opportunities to network with other tourism businesses and interests.
 
Explaining the programme, Niamh Mannion, Visitor Engagement, with Fáilte Ireland said, “Limerick’s historical buildings & towns, its stunning landscapes and world-class sporting events & festivals are brought to life every day by the front-line employees and volunteers. Visitors not only seek out local people & their advice, they trust it. This programme aims to build on the good work already happening on the ground and inspire all front-line employees and volunteers to turn every visitor interaction into a truly informative & positive experience.”
 
The National Tourism Development Authority are calling on all visitor-facing employees, local volunteers and people in the Limerick community that regularly interact with visitors. So, if you own a B&B, work in a Hotel, restaurant, retail store, taxi company, or if you are active in your local community, the Know Limerick programme is for you. 
 
This is a Free event and places are on a first come first serve basis. To register for the Workshop please email [email protected].
