Paul Simpson, managing director of Visit Manchester, said: “Over the last 30 years Great Days Out has established itself as the leading exhibition for Group Travel Organisers. Visit Manchester has been privileged to lead the show since 2004 and we are very proud of the platform the event provides to the tourism industry to showcase their product to the groups market.
“Domestic tourism is incredibly important to the UK economy – more so than ever during periods of economic uncertainty - and this event helps nurture that business. I think it is also testament to the event’s reputation that VisitEngland has recently joined the steering group that advises on the show’s future direction. This is a national exhibition and one the industry relies upon to secure future business.”
Confirmed exhibitors include: Cadbury World, Blackpool Pleasure Beach, LegoLand Discovery Centre, Mersey Ferries, the National Football Museum and the Royal Air Force Museum. Tourism authorities in attendance include: Go Cumbria, Visit Liverpool and Visit Blackpool.
