What's new for 2017 (and beyond)

In the last few months of 2016 and the first quarter of 2017, we have a busy time meeting with media and travel trade highlighting why they should visit Bristol in 2017 and beyond.  This includes sharing your news of what's new, changes, awards and promotions.  

If you have something to tell us, please get in touch with as much detail as you can - plus any embargo we need to consider - and we will look to work this into our wider communication.

Our core audience markets are:

• Consumer - domestic
• Consumer - international
• Travel Trade - international
• Conferences and Business Events - Corporate, Association and Agents

Many markets work with up to 2 years lead time, so it's never too early to make that call.

Food Friday blogs

Each Friday we release a food-based one-day itinerary from someone in the city. This can be used to help promote a new opening, exhibition, event, attraction, accommodation, etc. You can view an example here.

Please get in touch with Angharad Paull if you would like to be considered for this opportunity: angharad.paull@destinationbristol.co.uk or telephone 0117 946 2205.
