Ennis named as first town in Ireland to achieve Purple Flag
Ennis is the first town in Ireland accredited with the prestigious International Purple Flag Award proving Ennis’ claim to be the Friendliest Town in Ireland. The Purple Flag means Excellence in appeal and Management of town centres in the evening and at night. Brian O’Neill, chairman of Promote Ennis, said: “We are delighted to be the first town in Ireland accredited with the prestigious international Purple Flag award proving Ennis’s claim to be the Friendliest Town in Ireland. It is a huge honour and credit to the town, the people of Ennis and Clare and our dynamic working group – a collaboration incorporating the Ennis’ business community, Ennis Town Council, Shannon Development and Ennis Gardai. Visitors to the Town can enjoy a vibrant, appealing, well-managed and safe evening and night-time economy. This distinguished accreditation brings with it increased tourism potential for Ennis and ranks the county town among over 35 towns and cities in UK who are proudly flying Purple Flag, many of which have direct connections into Shannon Airport.” More info…
