North York Moors Campaign

Driving two-centre breaks to York and its neighbouring National Park is at the heart of this campaign, encouraging visitors to stay two nights in York and two nights in the North York Moors.

Following on from the success of the 2019 campaign Visit York will continue to work in partnership with the North York Moors National Park Authority, to deliver a whole host of marketing activity starting with a 3 week campaign on Classic FM North and London area from 13 January 2020.
