A safe and convenient place to come Christmas shopping

Sunday July 5, 2020

We are working with Visit Cheltenham on a Christmas campaign and would like to be able to share a joined-up town centre message about a safe and convenient place to come and do Christmas shopping during November and December.

Are you planning on opening late?

Are you planning any safe festive activities?

Please email info@cheltenhambid.co.uk

What is the BID is doing? –

The BID will ensure that Christmas is special this year by providing completely new Christmas lights across the town centre, supported by Cheltenham Borough Council. It also plans to put on a range of family activities and continue to work with businesses to make Christmas as special as possible.

As well as the sparkle during the darker hours, the new Christmas lights will bring a gleam during the day.  Golden baubles will hang from the trees on the pedestrianised Promenade and gold powder-coated holly, reindeer, stars and harps will adorn the lampposts in other streets.  A new Christmas tree will be installed at the Montpellier roundabout.

We have a fun interactive augmented Christmas trail up our sleeves. Christmas Spirits will spring to life when children scan the QR codes hidden in businesses windows around town, as they attempt to find Father Christmas ‘s brother and win an ebook, as well as an exciting Christmas Cheltenham Gift Card campaign to include a fun festive viral competition on the theme of supporting local and a £1,500 Cheltenham Gift Card first prize provided by the Gift Card company.
