Tourism in the UK is booming, adding £562 million to the economy as regional cities like Bristol, Newcastle, and Birmingham drive remarkable growth. VisitBritain and VisitEngland’s strategic campaigns, including Starring GREAT Britain, have successfully drawn international visitors beyond London. With 60% of spending now happening in regional destinations, this surge is strengthening local economies, boosting small businesses, and reshaping the UK’s tourism landscape for sustainable, nationwide prosperity.
