Cumbria Tourism Marketing Campaigns
Cumbria Tourism has an award-winning reputation for delivering high-profile marketing campaigns to support tourism businesses and grow Cumbria’s visitor economy. The Lake District, Cumbria is world-renowned brand, but we know tourism is a fiercely competitive industry and our team works hard to promote our county as a sustainable, year-round destination.
Growing staying visitors, increasing the length of stays and increasing visitor spend are all integral to who we are as an organisation.
Cumbria Tourism’s marketing campaigns also encourage visitors to explore the whole of Cumbria, bringing economic benefits for all. In fact, our successful #ThePerfectPlaceToBe campaign was ‘highly commended’ at the Prolific North Marketing Awards for ‘attracting and dispersing’ visitors more evenly across the county as part of the post-pandemic recovery.
#ThePerfectPlaceToBe is just one of Cumbria Tourism’s recent award-winning campaigns:
