17/08/09
South Belfast Alliance MLA Anna Lo has congratulated those involved in the organisation of the Tall Ships festival and stated that this event has shown that Belfast is in a prime position to host other exciting global events in the future.
Anna Lo said: "I would like to commend those involved in the organisation of the excellent Tall Ships event. Its overwhelming success can be seen in the massive numbers who attended and enjoyed this spectacle.
I also want to praise Lord Mayor Naomi Long on her contribution to Belfast’s positive image since taking office. She has done a magnificent job in showcasing Belfast and what it has to offer.
The Tall Ships festival was a major success for tourism in the city and it puts Belfast on the world events map. It shows that we can host the biggest global events and put on an amazing show.
This event illustrated the true and positive image of the city, and helped to greatly boost our economy. It attracted many people from other parts of the world and I am confident that many of them will have been very impressed and will return again."
