Visit Florida shine in Ireland

#Traveltradetogether

The visit Florida team in conjunction with trade partners from the Sunshine State made their way from Dublin to Cork as we concluded our flavours of Florida roadshow series on the banks of the River Lee in Cork City.

Don Shearer (Travelbiz) made his way to Cork with the Visit Florida team and partners from the Sunshine State following our event in Dublin, allowing the train to take the strain in glorious sunny southeast and west sunshine to the River Lee hotel for the second leg of our Visit Florida roadshow.

What a great night it was with the trade in Cork and surrounding areas supporting our valued Visit Florida trade partners in great numbers despite some serious traffic snarl ups along the way.

Again, the event encouraged full on interaction with another highly energized atmosphere culminating in our fun filled quiz and another amazing prize with flights to Orlando with Aer Lingus and an amazing week stay on the Paradise coast and Universal Orlando!

Our winner on the night was Sabrina Horn (Trailfinders in Cork). Congratulations Sabrina and your team on the night who were the quickest on the buzzers!

Our Rory Harvey musical trio supplied the music on the night with some of our trade colleagues and partners showing some cool moves on the floor. The guys were amazing, and we will be seeing them back here in Ireland again for sure.

Travelbiz, Visit Florida and all our Sunshine State partners would like to thank all the trade who registered and participated in our Visit Florida events over the past few days as we appreciate the time pressures you are facing daily. The feedback we have received to date has been extremely positive and we will be in touch soon with some more great news and goodies for all who registered for our events. Stay tuned to Travelbiz.ie for more!!!!

A BIG VISIT FLORIDA THANKYOU FROM.

Lauren Pace (Director Global Marketing & Trade), Aelon Suskey (Senior Global Marketing & Trade Account Executive), Gill Standeven (Account Director Ireland & UK) and Muna Abanour (Account Manager Ireland & UK).

And all our Sunshine State partners.
