More than 90 of Essex's top tourist attractions will feature at the ninth annual Tourist and Leisure Show in Colchester later this month.
The show, which attracts exhibitors from across Essex and the South-East, is already a sell-out with 90 exhibitors ranging from the Bank of England and the Victoria and Albert Museum to the Royal Horticltural Society gardens in Chelmsford and Colchester Castle.
Carol Jolly, the Essex Tourist Association organiser, said: "Our show is enormously popular and does more than anything to promote Essex attractions as well as those beyond our borders.
"We in Essex are particulary rich in places to visit."
The exhibition is open to those organising group tours and day trips, such as the Women's Institute, Rotary, school and youth groups and retirement clubs.
Said Ms Jolly: "It is a great opportunity for group travel organisations to gain plenty of inspiration for days out and short breaks to Essex and beyond.
"With more than 20 new exhibitors this year, it promises to be another great show."
The show is on February 17 from 10am to 3pm at Colchester Charter Hall.
