Through our marketing campaigns, consumer newsletter, town centre events, social media accounts and website, we use the ‘Kingston upon Thames’ place brand to highlight Kingston’s historical and recreational offerings, and position the town as an unrivalled destination for visitors.

We also use our online presence to support members of the BID, announcing venue openings and promoting local events and in-store offers.

London’s best Christmas destination outside of the West End

Kingston is renowned as a destination of choice over the festive period with its wealth of shopping opportunities, food and entertainment options and importantly, our Christmas Market – which is commonly listed as one of the top markets in London and the UK.

Each year we look to build on this recognition; further enhancing the quality and experience of the Christmas market and bolstering activity to drive footfall in this key period.
