Tourism businesses and organisations from across County Mayo have gathered in Belmullet and Westport for Fáilte Ireland Tourism Breakfast Briefings. The sessions focused on strengthening collaboration and sustainable growth. Stakeholders received updates on tourism projects, destination development and available supports. Practical advice covered productivity, profitability, customer value, technology adoption, skills and collaboration to help businesses remain competitive.
Fáilte Ireland hosted briefings on Tuesday, 6 October 2026 at the Broadhaven Bay Hotel in Belmullet, County Mayo, and on Wednesday, 7 October 2026 at the Westport Woods Hotel in Westport, County Mayo. The events brought together western industry stakeholders, local development companies and tourism operators. Key discussions centred around tourism project updates, including the Wild Mayo Destination Development Plan which includes projects like the 15km Céide Coastal Path and the Erris Gaeltacht living heritage experiences.
Business support and guidance informed operators about available practical resources, including regional cost-management clinics covering energy, labour and overhead costs. Sustainable growth discussions drove collaboration to build competitiveness and extend visitor stays into the off-peak shoulder seasons.
