​Bury Market greets record number of coaches in November

A record number of coaches are coming to Bury Market bringing shoppers keen to visit this award-winning attraction.

Last year the market welcomed more than 1,600 coaches and 2018 shows no sign of this trend reversing, with coach visits in November setting a new monthly record of 279.

Andrew Heyes, markets manager, said: “Bury has long been a favourite coach destination for those seeking to experience a traditional market, and the number of coach visits has steadily increased each year since records began in 2008.

“We’re delighted that so many coach operators continue to visit our famous award-winning market. The visits from coaches are important to the growth of the market and hopefully these visits will go from strength to strength.”

People wishing to organise a trip to Bury Market can find more information on the market’s website www.burymarket.com. Coach drivers will note that the purpose-built coach drop-off facility, coach drivers’ rest room and £5 meal voucher provided on every visit all help to make bringing a coach to Bury a pleasure.
