THE City of Alicante is set to launch its most extensive promotional campaign to date in the UK. The campaign aims to solidify and boost the British market’s growth. It will coincide with the World Travel Market in London from November 6 to 8 and extend for a month, targeting London, Manchester, Bristol, and Edinburgh.

Where Summer Never Ends

The campaign, titled ‘Alicante City, where summer never ends,’ aims to strengthen their primary source market to attract more ‘city break’ and vacation tourists, capitalising on Alicante‘s excellent air connectivity during the autumn and winter seasons.

Campaign Targets London, Manchester, Bristol, and Edinburgh

The campaign features a total of 175 city buses adorned with Alicante’s imagery and campaign slogan that will circulate in three British cities from November 6 to December 3. Specifically, 50 buses will roam London, Manchester, and Edinburgh, with 25 more in Bristol.
