Northern Spain - Sales Mission 2026

Information

Northern Spain region is one of our key outbound regions from Spain to the island of Ireland with direct access from Bilbao to Cork and Dublin, Santander and Santiago de Compostela to Dublin, along with ferry access to Rosslare from Bilbao. For 2026, there will be 2 new routes Santiago de Compostela-Cork and Oviedo-Dublin as well as an increase on frequency on the Santiago-Dublin route. We offer you an opportunity to meet key travel trade contacts from the region and drive bookings/contracts for 2026/2027. 

The event will be organized in partnership with a top Spanish tour operator and will comprise a presentation followed by lunch/dinner for further networking opportunities in each city (Santander, Oviedo and Santiago de Compostela). We will aim to recruit at least 30 key decision makes/buyers from local tour operators and travel agencies that sell Europe or have a potential to sell Europe, agencies that work with ad hoc groups, Premium leisure agencies, and agencies that design and sell their own programming with a focus on slow travel. 

• Dates and cost of participation will be confirmed at a later stage. 
• Successful partners are responsible for any additional personal costs associated with attending the event, including costs of flights/travel, accommodation, and any meals outside of those offered as part of the event.   
• No refunds for cancellations after 31.03.2026.
  

Recruitment will be carried out by Fáilte Ireland and Tourism Northern Ireland.
