Communities from across Mayo were honoured for their efforts to promote tourism in the county by organising Gathering events during the year.
The groups were presented with certificates by Minister of State Michael Ring at a special ceremony in Breaffy House Hotel.
Mayo was one of the top three counties nationally for Gathering events when 307 Gatherings were organised across the county.
Each Gathering organiser was presented with a certificate of achievement, issued by the President of Ireland, Michael D Higgins.
