VisitEssex up and Running

Visit Essex is the new official tourism organisation for the county and the only organisation specifically marketing the whole of the county to the visitor market.

It works with visitor attractions, leisure/activity providers, accommodation establishments and other tourism related businesses (including the travel trade, media and wider partners), to ensure that the county remains a leading visitor destination.

Its work encompasses major marketing campaigns, high profile PR work, business support, and the management and promotion of the official Visit Essex brand.

Visit Essex will ensure that the county gets the recognition it deserves as a desirable place to visit in the 21st century. We will work closely with partners to develop a sustainable tourism offering for the future, identify new markets and harness visitors at the county's major gateways of Stansted, Harwich and the M25.
