Most of the pages on visitharrogate.co.uk serve what we call organic traffic, people who are already looking for something that brings them naturally to our website
Throughout the year we deliver a number of campaigns designed to reach new visitors. Using a mix of tools and media we aim to interrupt the normal activity of target audiences and present them with an attractive and compelling offer to visit our destinations.
When we create and deliver these campaigns we work with our campaign partners to create new and bespoke content that does what our organic content cannot.
As well as webpages our campaign activity has included
In addition, we use and integrate our campaign content across our Invest and Events brands to further illustrate how attractive our part of Yorkshire can be to each of those audiences.

Visit Harrogate Restaurant Week was new for February 2023 and saw over 25 local businesses hosting over 40 offers to encourage visitors to eat out, try somewhere new and fill tables during what would normally be a quiet time for hospitality.
The next Visit Harrogate Restaurant Week will take place in October 2023.
Our Christmas campaign will return later this years to highlight the incredible and growing festive offer across the towns and attractions of the Harrogate area, to increase footfall, spend and national media exposure and help all our local businesses get the most from the Christmas period.
