Nice vlog, great to see UK vloggers coming over to Enerald Park finally. It deserves to get the footfall, Tir na nOg is a brilliant addition.

[@coasterfest]

Definitely... The park is so easy to get to if you live close to an airport here, I am surprised the place isn't always full of Brits. Mind you, I know lots of people heading over there in the coming months, so it looks like Tir na nOg is doing it's job. Great coaster. Thanks for watching and commenting.

Looks like a great day... And back in the UK by 10pm*.....AMAZING!!!

[@coasterfest]

Was a great day!!! Not keen on your name for Na Fianna though ;) Oh and stupid broken plane… Didn’t mention that in the video as ‘hopefully’ that’s just a freak occurrence. 🙈😂 In 100’s of Ryanair flights I’ve only had 2 or 3 delays. (Although, all of them have been at night! 🤔) Thanks for watching, and thanks for coming along, definitely makes the video more interesting than me just yapping away!

[@OllyGannon_Gaming]

There I am

[@coasterfest]

Hope you enjoyed see yourself. Thanks for the laughs in the queue. Not everyday you do a warm up drill before a coaster. 🙈😂

@@OllyGannon_Gaming Might be a bit late for some of us. 🙈🤣😂🤣

How have I only found your channel now, Nick? Great vlog mate. Energylandia reunion soon

[@coasterfest]

I only started it a few weeks ago mate!!! Definitely time for another trip soon! :) Just at Glasto now, be back on the coaster trail next week :)

[@OutdoorAmusement]

I'm surprised you were still going after the park, i'd be exhausted 😅. Great video!

[@coasterfest]

That’s what makes this park perfect for it. Only a 25 minute drive back to Dublin Airport, and then East Midlands Airport is only 15 mins from home. A nice small, relaxing, park too. :) Thanks for watching, and commenting. :)

I live beside Emerald Park ❤

[@bolgerw]

What date did you attend? I want to go when there’s no one there lol. Your timing looked perfect

[@coasterfest]

We went on Monday the 10th June. We were expecting it to be busy, everyone had warned us that it was 'school trip season.' Even the guy at the Dublin airport car hire desk said "It'll be mayhem, full of schools." But it was really quiet, 3 or 4 schools on park, and few other people. Those school kids that were on park were very well behaved, not at all chaotic like UK school trip weeks.

[@BrzndzVlogz]

Recently did this exact trip but from Manchester airport as well. Such an easy day trip.

[@coasterfest]

Awesome, hope you had a great time. I meant to mention him in the video, but as a new creator I'm still very much learning and winging it, so forgot... But Scott, from Your Experience Guide, told me about this possibility, and gave me the video / series idea, so shout out to him. I'm now looking at other places where this is possible, as Emerald Park isn't the only option. :) Thanks for watching and commenting.

[@coasterfest]

Watching your video now :)

[@BrzndzVlogz]

@@coasterfest Thanks mate :) Great content from yourself!

[@Chelsea_Universe]

Ok listen up! I’m happy enough with your mispronunciation considering you are from a different country, but if you were wondering, some of the tricky ones were as follows: Cú Chulainn (Coo-Cullinn), Tír na nÓg (Teer nah nOHg(pronounced like the word ‘oh’)) and Na Fianna Force ( Nah Feenah Force) hope you enjoyed your time! This is my home park and I am excited by the recent expansion!!!

[@coasterfest]

And quite right that you should be excited, it's a fantastic addition, a top coaster for the British Isles, never mind just Ireland, and a solid family coaster too... The new area looks like it will be a top notch area. (It's already very pretty.) My only slight criticism, that I didn't want to dwell on in the video, was the unfinished state the area was opened in. HOWEVER, since getting home and looking into it more, I understand the position they were in, with delays, and needing to start start seeing a return on their investment whilst they continue the work. So I'm glad I didn't mention it much in the video, as I fully understand why now. Thanks for the pronunciations, I think I've got it now... Now more silly alternatives. Ironically, the way you've said to pronounce Cú Chulainn is the way I'd always pronounced it, for years, until my friend threw me off by saying it was 'Cu-lane.' So glad we've cleared that up, it's nice to have been right for once. And we had a great time thank you. One of the ironic things about these vlogs is that you often don't capture the most fun parts... Because you're too busy in the moment, having fun, to film them. Perhaps something I need to work on. But yes, we had a great time.

Has a Irish person I took all does names personal

[@coasterfest]

@@danielmeehan8552 Don’t, we know how to pronounce them now!!! Not known for our foreign language skills us English! 🙈

[@danielmeehan8552]

@@coasterfest yeah I know good video by the way best review on emerald park

[@coasterfest]

@@danielmeehan8552 Thank you :) We did really enjoy our day at Emerald Park. :)

[@kevindevane6175]

KU-KUL-AN

[@tottenhamhotspurfanplaying8776]

It’s pronounced Na Finna force and Tir na noog

[@coasterfest]

Fin-a and noog… Got it :) Tir is pronounced ‘stir’ without the ‘s’ I presume? Thanks and thanks for watching :)

[@cllk115]

​​@coasterfest Tír is pronounced the same as "Tier" and Nóg is pronounced in the same way as "Vogue", Fianna is pronounced like "Fee-a-na". Hope this helps 🤞

[@coasterfest]

Thank you, that makes a lot of sense. At least we got Fianna right then.

[@coasterfest]

What about Cu Chulainn? There’s commonly two different ways that English speakers say it. Cul-lane and Cul-an… Which is correct?
