Paul Martin from Flog It

BY TIM HEDGLEY, GROUP TRAVEL EDITOR

He spent 17 years travelling the length and breadth of the country for television’s ‘Flog It’ and has also, famously, presented shows such as ‘I Never Knew That About Britain’ and the ‘Countryfile Diaries’ but, this week presenter Paul Martin will turn his steps towards Belfast where he will officially open Belfast Telegraph Holiday World, Northern Ireland’s favourite annual celebration of travel and tourism.

Taking time out from his latest show, ‘Make Me A Dealer’, Paul will cut the ribbon to open the 27thannual show at 1pm on Friday 18 January in the Titanic Exhibition Centre.

He’ll be welcoming hundreds of exhibitors from close to home and from around the world, all set to inspire and excite tens of thousands of winter-weary visitors with everything that’s hot and happening in the world of travel … with enough special offers and incentives to delight even the most determined dealer!

The three day show at Titanic Exhibition Centre will play host to international tourist boards, destinations, airlines and ferry companies, hotels and B&BS, visitor attractions and a vast range of service providers.

Amongst the big new names checking in for a first visit to Belfast will be China’s National Tourist Office, the Great Lakes region of the USA, the Madeira Promotion Bureau and the Turks & Caicos Tourist Board.

They’ll join the diverse cast of travel professionals at the three-in-one show where, in addition to the colourful attractions of the main exhibition, there will also be a 50+ Village, reflecting the continuing growth and buying power of that market sector, and the ever-popular Caravan & Motorhome Show, always a crowd-pleasing centrepiece of the annual event. Special features will include the dedicated Oasis Travel Cruise Pavilion and the Honeymoon & Weddings Destinations Pavilion hosted by Clubworld Travel. This year there will also be a focus on buying property abroad.

Show Director Maureen Ledwith says of the event, “Belfast Telegraph Holiday World offers a fantastic opportunity for people to do their cost comparisons in a lively, fun-filled environment that’s perfectly designed to put them in holiday mood. Everything is right there under one roof and, with so much competition on hand and so many special show-only offers on the go, bargain-hungry visitors know they can secure really keen prices and added value offers.  In these tough economic times it’s all about making that holiday pound go further!

“Our savvy travellers are also well aware that January is prime time for new product and destination launches so they’ll be looking for fresh horizons as well as new takes on long-time favourite holiday spots.  Buying or browsing, they’ll be tapping into unrivalled global travel expertise concentrated in Belfast over 18-20 January.”
