About

The Visit York Visitor Information Centre has reopened its doors for local residents and visitors. Providing a range of information services, the Visitor Information Centre will be open daily, with new social distancing measures implemented to ensure the safety of staff and visitors. Measures include:

- A one-way entrance/exit system.
- New signage and floor markings
- Control of the number of visitors in the space at any time.
- New signage and barriers introduced into the space to aid with social distancing.
- Staff will have recommended PPE and hand sanitiser stations will also be available for visitors.

The Visitor Information Centre has received Visit England's 'We're Good to Go' accreditation showing we have all the latest COVID-19 health and safety measures in place. 



Please continue to observe social distancing guidelines and be respectful to others.

The Visit York Visitor Information Centre is based in the heart of the city, not far from the iconic York Minster. Our friendly assistants are here to share their expert local knowledge and provide guidance on travel information, places to eat, shops and events along with the latest advice on visiting the city’s attractions as they start to reopen from 4^th July following current Government guidelines. With many attraction admissions pre-bookable online with timed slots, the team will be able to assist with planning visits and booking tickets in advance. More information about which of the city’s attractions are open can be found on our What is Open in York page.

As well as our personal service, we also have a range of information leaflets and guides about York and beyond. We have a fantastic shop selling York merchandise, maps and gifts and you can pick up tickets for local attractions, events, bus passes and much more.
