The Aer Lingus Taste of America roadshow concludes in Cork

What an incredible turnout to close out four amazing days across Belfast, Dublin, Limerick and Cork. The energy, engagement and support throughout this, our sixth year supporting the number one trade-focused roadshow celebrating all things USA, has been simply outstanding.

Don, Jacinta, Ita, Peter and the entire Travelbiz team were on the ground across all venues, ensuring our readers and followers experienced the true level of partnership, collaboration and interaction delivered by our valued USA Trade partners.

Don Shearer (Travelbiz & Travelfinders) shared:

“It was a real pleasure working with you all over the past four days. We are proud to support this fantastic roadshow celebrating all things USA. Stay tuned — we’ll be announcing our 2027 schedule very soon so you can get those dates stamped into your Travelbiz Yearbook and Diary!”

A massive thank you to our outstanding USA Trade Partners:
