Headline Sponsor secured for this year’s Southport Flower Show
SOUTHPORT Flower Show is delighted that Harrison Holidays is headline sponsor of this year’s Southport Flower Show. Established for over 40 years and family-owned, Harrison Holidays is part of the Harrison Leisure Group. William Harrison, a Director of Harrison Holidays, said:- “We are thrilled that Harrison Holidays is the headline sponsor of the Southport Flower Show. It is a real summer highlight on the calendar, inspiring visitors with its spectacular show gardens, floral displays, performances and so much more.”
The Harrison Holidays team will be at Southport Flower Show throughout the 4 day event to say hello and share with visitors the experience and joy of owning a holiday home and all about the fun and relaxing times that await at 1 of their holiday parks. The story of Harrison Holidays goes back to the 1970s and the start of George Harrison’s dream. The purchase of a single caravan followed by an incredible amount of hard work meant that seven years later he was able to open his first holiday park. Fast forward several decades and the business is thriving under the second generation of Harrisons, George’s three sons: George, William and Robert. They continue George’s vision for creating holiday parks that are places to make memories and enjoy spending time with family and friends. George started with a caravan, but Harrison Holidays now has eight holiday parks that incorporate holiday homes, lodges, glamping, tourers, motorhomes, cottages and hot tub accommodation. But that’s not all, you’ll also find bars, restaurants, swimming pools, golf courses, mini-football, games rooms, splash-pads, gyms and adventure playgrounds! Percy Wood Holiday Park on the Northumberland coast, Wild Rose Holiday Park in the Lake District and Riverside Holiday Park and Brooklyn Holiday Park in Southport are just some of the fabulous locations across the North of England. Alan Adams, General Manager of Southport Flower Show and Victoria Park, said:- “We are delighted to welcome Harrison Holidays as our headline sponsor. They have been here before as an exhibitor but to have them on board as a headline sponsor is fantastic. This year’s show is really coming together, ticket sales are excelling and it’s going to be one of our best yet!”
