Kent's Big Day Out on 29th March 2008

Do Not Miss Out and Sign Up Today!

The Big Day Out is a chance for you to promote your attraction to local residents and encourage pride in the county where they live. Did you know that 25% of people staying in Kent are visiting friends and family, so it is important that the local residents know more about where they live and what there is to do.

The idea of Big Day Out is to give Kent residents free entrance to attractions in the county for one day on 29th March 2008, becoming an annual event for five years leading up to the Olympics in 2012. This is not just another free promotion, tickets can only be applied for in advance and attractions can limit the numbers of tickets available. The more tickets you offer and the sooner you get involved the more publicity you will get. We are aiming to make even more than 10,000 tickets available overall to really make an impact!

Even if you are not usually open on that day or feel your garden is not looking its best at that time of year there are ways for you to still get involved. Maybe you will consider a special open day just for this event or maybe you would like to offer tickets for another time of year. We want everyone in the industry to be able to take part and benefit.

The advantages of participating are numerous: raising awareness of your attraction, gaining PR coverage and encouraging local goodwill and support. This will be translated into word of mouth recommendation and most of all new and repeat visits.
