Travellers offered 10 reasons to visit Northern Ireland
11 August 2008
People planning a holiday later this year have been given ten reasons to consider Northern Ireland in their decision by Bushmills Irish Whiskey.
Top of the list is Bushmills' own whiskey distillery, which is this year celebrating its 400th anniversary, making it the oldest working whiskey distillery in Ireland. The attraction is located an hour's drive from Belfast.
There are also a number of events taking place in Northern Ireland that are set to attract visitors, including the PlanetLove festival on 5 and 6 September.
This year will mark the festival's tenth anniversary, after thousands of dance music fans gathered on the banks of Lough Neagh in 1998 to celebrate the beginning of Northern Ireland's first outdoor music festival.
People who prefer comedy to dance music may be interested in seeing Lee Evans when he brings his UK tour to Belfast on 15 October, before Coldplay perform at the Odyssey Arena on 18 December.
Northern Ireland boasts a number of natural attractions as well, including a coastline that is popular with watersports enthusiasts and the famous Giant's Causeway.
Opodo cheap flights, hotels and car hire - let the journey begin!
