Fáilte Ireland

Fáilte Ireland is the National Tourism Development Authority. Its remit joins support for tourism businesses with the development of destinations and visitor experiences. It works with communities, local authorities, government and other partners, connecting national tourism policy with the places and businesses that receive visitors. Its work centres on business performance and destination development.

The public authority separates governance from executive responsibilities. Its board oversees strategy and accountability, while an executive team runs the organisation and its programmes. Public funding and tourism policy help shape its work. Fáilte Ireland's role therefore extends beyond promoting individual accommodation providers: it supports the businesses, partnerships and destination programmes on which tourism depends.
