Attraction, Activity & Event Organisers (Mid Wales)

Membership from £7.95+ VAT per month


Attractions, Activity Providers & Event Organisers (Mid Wales)

We welcome all attractions, activity and experience providers, event organisers - including tour guides - into MWT membership.

Whether you're thinking of starting a new business or holding a new event - or if you want to attract more visitors to the one you've already got, MWT can help.

​
By supporting us you'll also be supporting the vital work we do to promote Mid Wales as a fantastic place to visit.
​

We can help you attract more visitors

Picture
MWT is not a booking agency, so we don't sell attraction or event tickets on your behalf. Our aim is to generate more direct business for you, by empowering you to improve your own marketing and by generating referral traffic from our platforms to yours. Our members' website entries have clear calls to action (look at the buttons for 'Visit website' and 'Book ticket' as examples)

Our advice is tailored to you - but generally speaking, we advise all members to a) have their own website and b) give visitors the option to book/buy tickets online.
To get the most out of membership, we advise you to update your web listing on Visit Mid Wales regularly. You can do this via the Guestlink platform (if you have a listing on the national Visit Wales website, this will also update your entry on there).  We provide lots of help and support to do this.

Just to say thank you so much for the valuable time you gave me this morning, the time passed so quickly. From my point of view, the time spent was priceless.  You have given me and my fellow trustees such food for thought as well as the practical skills I need to use Guestlink.
