Local businesses in Inishowen are ready for the influx of 100,000 visitors expected to descend on Donegal for the fast-approaching Dubai Duty Free Irish Open.
Fáilte Ireland held three Irish Open Service Excellence Charter workshops over the last two days (19th and 20th June) for local businesses to get in the spirit of the event.
The fully subsidised workshops were centred on Fáilte Ireland’s Irish Open Customer Service Excellence Charter, which aims to act as an assurance to visitors coming to Donegal for the event that local businesses in the area are committed to ensuring they enjoy a comfortable, safe, informative and memorable experience, which represents good value for money.

Fáilte Ireland’s Head of the Wild Atlantic Way, Miriam Kennedy, said: “The Dubai Duty Free Irish Open is an amazing opportunity for local Donegal businesses to showcase what the Wild Atlantic Way has to offer and we want to help everyone in the area from hotels to transport services to provide the best possible visitor experience for those attending the event and in turn, encourage visitors to come back to Donegal in the future.”
60 local businesses took part in the workshops which were designed to help those on the front line to identify customer’s needs and expectations and increase customer satisfaction, retention and loyalty as well as creating a sense of team spirit around the Dubai Duty Free Irish Open. On completion of the workshop, each business received a Fáilte Ireland Irish Open Customer Service Excellence Charter Certificate and sticker to display in their premises.
The Dubai Duty Free Irish Open will take place from the 4th – 8th of July on Ballyliffin Golf Course, Co. Donegal.
