O-fish-ally a successful event!

The Morrows Events team recently managed the Flavours of the Foyle Seafood Festival, on behalf of Derry City Council Tourism Department.

The two day event featured live cookery stalls hosted by North West Chefs where visitors could try and buy dishes with ‘Flavours of the Foyle’.  A host of family fun and "brill"-iant entertainment was on offer including a Loughs Agency touch tank, live music and ‘fishy’ street entertainers.
Working with our partners – Food NI, we also created a ‘Theatre of Food’ featuring live cookery demonstrations of signature dishes, hosted by celebrity chefs Paula McIntyre and Brian McDermott.

The Flavours of the Foyle Seafood Festival saw over 10,000 visitors (not even squidding..!) over the two days – almost doubling the expected figures and judging by the amount of ‘Gone Fishing’ signs at the end of each day – visitors certainly got a taste of Northern Ireland – “Our Food So Good”.



Pardon the fishy puns..but we had a whale of a time..

A European Events Team!



Morrow’s Events team have just returned from Dublin where they successfully managed the EuroSME 2013 Conference on behalf of Enterprise Ireland and the European Commission.  The two-day event focused on Horizon 2020, the EU’s upcoming framework for Research and Innovation and the conference provided an opportunity for delegates to have their say and to help shape the innovation agenda.


320 delegates from 20 European countries travelled to Dublin with the main conference proceedings taking place within the historic grounds of Dublin Castle as well as a gala dinner at the Royal Hospital Kilmainham.  Keynote speakers included Sean Sherlock TD, Clara de la Torre, Director of Research and Innovation at the European Commission as well as Keary Crawford from the Growth Strategy Co based in Washington D.C. and Anne-Lise Kjaer, a futurist and founder of Kjaer Global Ltd.
