Tourism Ireland has launched a €12m, multi-media autumn campaign to boost late-season travel to Ireland from around the world.

Explore the spectacular coastline along the Wild Atlantic Way, experience hot heritage in the South-East, feast on fabulous food festivals, or immerse yourself in inspiring art and design.

NEWLY-crowned Masterchef Ireland champion Mary Carney will turn the tables on her counterparts when she appears at the Savour Kilkenny Food Festival over the October bank holiday weekend.

SHOPPERS could add more than €1 billion to the economy by switching a quarter of their weekly grocery spend from imported to Irish food.
