Ireland’s scenery spotlighted to millions of Australians this summer
Tourism Ireland has once again teamed up with the Seven Network, a major TV network in Australia, to film segments in Ireland that will air across three episodes of its series The Great Outdoors. Broadcasting this summer on the national channel, Channel 7, each episode will reach approximately 1 million viewers across Australia. Filming is supported by Tourism Ireland, Fáilte Ireland and Tourism NI.
The TV crew – including Australian TV presenter Teigan Nash – filmed at numerous locations in Kilkenny including Highbank Orchards, Kilkenny Design Centre, Mount Juliet and with Hurling Tours Ireland at O’Loughlin Gaels GAA Club. In Clare, they visited Burren Smokehouse, The Burren Perfumery and Aillwee Burren Experience.
The crew also filmed at The Gobbins, Glenarm Castle and The Harbourview Hotel on the Causeway Coastal Route and enjoying some breadmaking and canoeing at Tracey’s Farmhouse Kitchen on the shores of Strangford Lough.
Sofia Hansson, Tourism Ireland’s Manager for Australia and New Zealand, said:
“Tourism Ireland was delighted to invite ‘The Great Outdoors’ crew back to Ireland to film for their latest series with Australian TV presenter Teigan Nash. It’s a wonderful opportunity to highlight our fantastic outdoor activities and spectacular scenery to millions of Australians, inspiring them to come and experience the destination for themselves.”
