New Spring Festival Guide unveiled



Richard Wilcox Falmouth BID Manager with new Spring Festival Guide



A new guide produced for the second Falmouth Spring Festival has been unveiled this week. The event, which celebrates Falmouth’s superb gardens, coastline and open spaces through a series of music, art, fashion and community based events is another project instigated and funded by the Falmouth Business Improvement District (BID).

Richard Wilcox, Falmouth BID Manager said:



“We’ve got loads of good things planned for this year’s Festival – Run Falmouth half marathon & Fun Run, a Spring Fair, Gardeners’ Question Time, a Zumba Zestifal, Guerrilla Gardening, art workshops, foraging walks, family rockpooling sessions, I could go on. We have ambitious plans to really grow and develop the Spring Festival over the next couple of years so that many thousands of extra visitors come to Falmouth, thereby providing a vital economic boost to our BID levy paying businesses during the early season. Because of the exciting, packed schedule we’ve put together this year, we wanted to produce a colourful, really good quality guide that people could use as an aide memoire to all the great things going on.”



10,000 copies of the free 16 page A5 sized guide will be available for residents and visitors from a variety of outlets throughout the town and area including – Falmouth and Truro Visitor Information Centres, National Maritime Museum Cornwall, Falmouth Art Gallery, Trelissick and Glendurgan Gardens, Princess Pavilion and Gyllyngdune Gardens, Falmouth Poly, University College Falmouth and a large number of accommodation providers.

The guide advertises supporters and partners of the Falmouth Spring Festival, gives information on forthcoming events in Falmouth as well as listing useful Falmouth websites such as the official site for the town www.falmouth.co.uk and social media sites.

 

As Richard Wilcox added:



“So whether you’re visiting Falmouth from another part of Cornwall or further afield, we hope all who visit our great town have a fantastic time, enjoy the Festival and return to this special part of the world in the near future.”
