The Donegal Connect event, held as part of Donegal Local Enterprise Week 2025, aims to foster meaningful connections among Donegal tourism providers within the county.
By encouraging referrals, collaborative partnerships, and the sharing of innovative practices, the event seeks to maximise the visitor experience, promote year-round tourism, and achieve a balanced geographical distribution of visitors across Donegal. This initiative aspires to empower local businesses to work collectively in showcasing Donegal as a premier, inclusive, and sustainable destination for all seasons.
Recent Fáilte Ireland research conducted to mark the 10th anniversary of the Wild Atlantic Way shows that The Wild Atlantic Way drives €3billion in revenue per year and a key focus for the future will be growing the year-round appeal of the northern half of the tourism route, such as Donegal.
