Who says there’s nothing to do in Cork ?
On this Saturday 6th March, Cork Tourism providers are coming together in Cork City Hall to showcase what is on offer in the rebel county in 2010 and put an end to the myth that there is nothing to do in Cork. The Re-Discover Cork event will have over 50 accommodation providers, tourist attractions, restaurants and festivals stretching from Bere Island to Youghal.
The Re-Discover Cork initiative is aimed at letting people in Cork know what is available to them on their doorstep. It will be a family fun afternoon from 12pm – 4pm in the millennium hall at Cork City hall with face painting, African drumming, train rides, food samples and competitions throughout the afternoon. The main goal of the event is to create awareness of what is on in the area it also aims to create more jobs in the city and county as Cork people both visit local tourism providers more and also become ambassadors for their city and county thus increasing tourism numbers in the area.
The event will be free to the public and will have something for everyone on the day and for those who may be shopping around the city there will be a train from the West Cork Railway Village on hand to bring you from the Grand Parade to City Hall. Cllr Kieran McCarthy will have a stand at this event promoting Cork’s rich heritage.
