Jack Johnson, spokesperson for the TripAdvisor company, said that the Hillsborough Oyster Festival was included in the round-up for September because of the event’s huge reputation.

He said: “The Hillsborough Oyster Festival just had to make the list because it’s become one of the most popular summer events in the UK, not just Northern Ireland.

“There’s so much for people to see and do at the five-day event, it’s easy to see why it’s attracting visitors from far and wide.”
