It’s the Shane’s Castle Game Fair - virtually

Northern Ireland’s traders, guest houses and hotels look forward each year to the weekend of the Shane’s Castle Game Fair for the trade and sheer buzz it creates in the area.

With interest in the fair this year from trade and public from all over Ireland and the UK ,the weekend looked like being the busiest ever.

However, with Covid 19 continuing to plague the country, the decision had to be been taken to postpone the event.

However, the Great Game Fairs of Ireland team had an innovative contingency plan in place!

Based on their 40 years experience of delivering award winning game fairs and country sports magazines, they designed and built The Virtual Game Fair and this will ‘open’ on August 29 and 30 at www.thevirtualgamefair.com.

The organising team have put the attractions and accommodation of Northern Ireland right at the heart of this fair and, with the virtual fair running right through 2020 and 2021 and being promoted to a worldwide audience, the organisers are confident that the Great Game Fairs of Ireland team will deliver once again for Northern Ireland and their host area.

Albert Titterington said: “Our Virtual Game Fair 2020 will open for business at  www.thevirtualgamefair.com on August 29 and 30.

“The Virtual Game Fair will then run 24/7 throughout 2020 and 2021 with an exciting mix of exhibitors, competitions and bargains galore.

“As this virtual fair is designed to replace not only the Irish Game Fair but all of the other Game Fairs cancelled throughout the UK and further afield, it will provide a unique opportunity for Northern Ireland’s traders to present their wares to a worldwide marketplace and 
for Northern Ireland to showcase the attractions of this unique area to a worldwide audience.

“With the huge international readership of our sister publication Irish Country Sports & Country Life standing at 100,000 and the thousands of avid Facebook supporters from around the world, we have a huge base to draw upon and I am confident that The Virtual Game Fair will achieve a record attendance.”

The slogan will be ‘The Game Fair you can visit every day’
