Advertising your events via VisitBude puts your event directly in front of locals and visitors who are actively looking for things to do while they are in Bude or planning their trip.
VisitBude is a trusted, local source of information, used daily by locals and holidaymakers seeking recommendations on attractions, experiences, tours and family-friendly activities. By being featured, your business becomes part of the official destination offer, giving visitors confidence to choose you.
Key benefits include:
- An event listing on the VisitBude online events calendar with image, description, map location and a direct link to your own website
- Exposure through the Tourist Information Centre, where staff recommend things to do based on visitors’ interests
- The ability to display your leaflets or flyers on the TIC wall, reaching visitors at the exact moment they are deciding what to do next
- Your event A4 poster displayed in the TIC window
- Inclusion in wider destination marketing campaigns that inspire visitors to explore more of what Bude has to offer
Many visitors specifically ask TIC staff for ideas on things to do, especially on changeover days or during mixed weather, making strong visibility with VisitBude particularly valuable. Being part of VisitBude helps ensure your event is promoted, recommended and considered when visitors are planning their time in Bude — ultimately helping to increase your footfall.
I’m already a Member of VisitBude – do I have to pay?

What event promotion options are available with VisitBude?
We offer three flexible event membership options, designed to suit everything from single events to a full annual programme. All options focus on giving your event strong visibility both online and at the Bude Tourist Information Centre (TIC) — a prime location seen daily by large numbers of visitors and locals.
Our basic promotion option is ideal for smaller or last-minute events and includes displaying your event poster in the TIC window for just £3 per week.
For organisers looking to maximise visibility and attract a wider audience, our enhanced promotion packages offer greater exposure and added value. We provide a £15 package for one-off events and a £50 annual package for regular events, making it a cost-effective way to promote multiple events throughout the year.
