To celebrate Our BiG Year, pills there is a special edition of City Life dedicated to all the exciting events taking place in the coming weeks.
The latest edition of City Life, the free magazine for residents of Gloucester, has been specially developed to commemorate an unprecedented year of events here in Gloucester.
With a certain exciting tournament just around the corner set to welcome visitors from across the globe, there are lots of special features detailing all the events coming up too.
Information about the series of festivities taking place to celebrate the different visiting countries, include a shedload of themed activities everyone can get involved with and enjoy. From martial arts to multi-cultural music, whirling. Scottish pipers to Where’s Scrumpty trails, there’s something for everyone.
Residents can also find out about how to get out and about across the city during the increase of visitors to the city.
Plus, local businesses and organisations are being encouraged to get involved with the Festival of Rugby 2015, where they can register any rugby-related events free, and get them promoted to thousands of visitors from across the globe.
Cllr Paul James, leader of Gloucester City Council, said: “2015 is shaping up to be a really big year for Gloucester and its residents.
“It’s great that the spotlight is on our city, encouraging new visitors to all our exciting events as well as reminding businesses and locals what a great place it is.
“I hope everyone will take full advantage of this opportunity and celebrate all that makes Gloucester the place to be.”
There are details about the improvements being made across the city, including free WiFi to help everyone keep in touch when out and about in the city centre.
Readers are also encouraged to do their bit, by keeping the city tidy and using the bins and recycling facilities available to help keep Gloucester looking spick and span.
City Life will arrive through the doors of all city residents over the coming week. Additional copies of this commemorative edition will be available at a number of locations across the city for anyone else who visits and wants a copy.
