The Big Day OutCanterbury Festival

14 October – 4 November 2017

The Big Day Out is an initiative run by Canterbury Festival, a registered charity and non-profit organisation, designed to promote tourist attractions, family days out, spas and outdoor activity providers throughout the county.

Building on the success of our Big Eat Out and Big Sleepover schemes which, since 2007, have proved popular with many of the 60,000 customers who enjoy the Festival annually, Canterbury Festival launched The Big Day Out as its newest scheme in 2016. It proved to be hugely successful and all ten available spots were filled.

We are inviting you to join the many businesses that have already shown their support for Canterbury Festival whilst benefitting from the fantastic publicity gained by four months of exposure in our programme.

To ensure maximum exposure, spaces are limited - book early to avoid disappointment!

There is a one-off administration charge of £100 + VAT for inclusion in the scheme. For this you will receive the following:

25 words of copy and photograph in the Festival brochure (60,000 distribution throughout July – November)

Listing, photograph and link to your website on the Festival website (78,000 visitors in 2016) Inclusion in any Festival press releases referencing The Big Day Out Possibility of Festival bunting to dress your building

From raising your local profile to gaining new customers, The Big Day Out scheme will bring a wealth of benefits to your business.

If you would like more information on the scheme, please contact Clare McCullagh on 01227 452853 or at clare@canterburyfestival.co.uk, or simply fill in the form provided and we’ll do the rest.

The Big Day Out“It was our first time supporting the Canterbury Festival, and we couldn't have been

happier. We are both interested in the arts and felt that it fitted in with our business and customer profile."
