Great for Groups 2012 has been launched to offer the UKs group travel organisers a fresh approach to travel trade exhibitions. Far removed from the tired format of other travel events in the UK, this promises to be the first truly interactive forum for group attractions.

The one-day exhibition will be set in the spectacular grandstand at Ascot Racecourse on Saturday 28 April, bringing the best attractions in the UK together under one roof.

This is a great chance for GTOs to truly interact with the UK’s key attractions, which offer a vast selection of ideas for group trips, plus a chance to share travel views with the industry’s finest group travel destinations. There will also be the chance to walk away with some amazing prizes, which will be announced via the large plasma-screens in the Grandstand - so make sure you keep your eyes and ears open as you could be a winner.

The event is supported by the GTOA, Smartsave and The Pass. It also has some great attractions already onboard, including...

• The River Cruise Line
• Guildford Tourism
• Cruise for Groups
• The London Symphony Orchestra
• Fred. Olsen Cruise Lines
• See Tickets
• Norman Allen Group Travel
• Delfont Mackintosh
• MSC Cruises
• Voyages of Antiquity
• South Quay Travel & Tourism
• City Cruises
• Hurtigruten

Group visitors will also be pleased to hear there will be a number of special features and fun events happening throughout the day to keep you entertained. These include themed events, live music, virtual horseracing and a relaxation and pamper zone.
