As the PGA Championship gets underway in South Carolina today, Tourism Ireland in the United States is rolling out a campaign on the hugely popular NBC Golf Channel. Three new 60-second videos showcasing Ireland will air over the coming days – reaching millions of golf fans across the US.
Ireland’s Ancient East and Dublin
The Wild Atlantic Way
Northern Ireland
They feature some of our top golf courses including Mount Juliet, Royal Dublin, County Louth, Waterville, Adare Manor, Lahinch, Ballyliffin, Royal Portrush and Royal County Down.
The campaign is designed to keep Ireland front and centre in the minds of American golfers – in order to capitalise on the demand for travel, once Ireland is open again for overseas visitors.
“Ireland is waiting and will greet you with a warm welcome when it’s time to travel again”.
Alison Metcalfe, Tourism Ireland’s Head of North America, said: “With millions of people across the US set to tune in to the PGA Championship on the NBC Golf Channel over the coming days, our new videos are a great way to shine a spotlight on some of our top golf courses. Our aim is to remind viewers that Ireland offers some of the very best golf in the world, as well as spectacular scenery and fantastic experiences. The campaign will help ensure that Ireland stays ‘top of mind’ among US golfers, until such time as they can visit again.”
The videos will also air on NBC Golf Channel in the US later this year – around other big tournaments like the US Open, The Open Championship and the Ryder Cup.
