Belfast Christmas Market Trip - Year 13

26th Nov 2021

The Sociology and the Travel and Tourism Departments visited Belfast’s famous Continental Christmas Market as part of their A-Level studies. This enabled students to experience the wide-ranging cultures; and
furthermore to learn about the role of the Visit Belfast Centre.


The market offered many products from all over the world with a range of unusual foods and gift ideas: crêpes from France, Dutch pancakes, Belgian chocolates and giant bratwurst from the iconic traditional German
Schwenkgrille.


In addition to visiting the market, the Travel and Tourism students attended a meeting with the Deputy Manager Ms S. Darcy. At the Visit Belfast Centre, we received a tour of the centre. Students were provided with an insight into the travel sector by discussing statistics which indicates that the market is growing again. Students are aware of the many career opportunities available to them.


Miss Campbell and Mr McCullough would like to take this opportunity to thank the students for their excellent behaviour and enthusiasm during the trip. We hope they are feeling festive and ready for Christmas!


Mr R. McCullough
Head of Travel and Tourism
