Paul Simpson, managing director of Visit Manchester, said: “The line-up for Great Days Out’s 30th is impressive. For anyone responsible for organising of any form of group travel – be it a sports and social society, membership association or just a group of friends – Great Days Out is the place to be. We’ve had hundreds of people sign-up to attend the show in February and I’m confident they’ll go-away with more than enough ideas for their travel plans for 2012.”
