OPENING OF DANIEL O’DONNELL VISITOR CENTRE, DUNGLOE, CO.DONEGAL 2012

Thousands of fans thronged the streets of Dungloe for the official opening of the Daniel O’Donnell Visitor Centre on May 6th. It made national news headlines as one of the country’s biggest successes of that year. Daniel’s life story and memorabilia are now a tourist attraction in his own hometown, in his own lifetime. This puts him on a par with Dolly Parton (Dollywood), Elvis Presley (Graceland) and Loretta Lynn (Hurricane Falls).
