Budding local photographers given unique opportunity to have their work displayed in front of millions of shoppers

Budding Bridlington-based photographers have been given the opportunity to have their work displayed in one of the town’s busiest destinations as part of a competition.

Promenades Shopping Centre, which experiences footfall levels of just over four million every year, is giving the region’s photographers to submit their best pictures of the local area as it looks to introduce a new vibrancy to the centre. The winning photographs will be featured on banners throughout the centre, with the photographer’s name featured on the banner.

The shopping centre has appealed for all photographers, from amateurs to professionals, to submit their best work featuring some of the region’s beauty spots.

Maria Kamper, Centre Manager of Promenades Shopping Centre said: “As a retail destination with the community at its heart, we want to not only showcase some of the region’s best beauty spots, but also to give local photographers a chance to have their work seen by millions of people from Bridlington and beyond.
“This year’s Tour de Yorkshire has not only seen visitors from across the UK, but from across the world as well and we want to show off what East Yorkshire has to offer in any way we can.
“We believe these banners will enhance our malls and it is even better to give people a chance to display something that they are proud of in the centre.”

Entries for the competition start on Wednesday, October 28th, with photographers given until November 30th to submit their picture. The pictures will then be put to the public to vote for before the winners are announced.

Any photographer willing to submit a photo must send their picture to dan.clark@mercury-marketing.co.uk with their name and contact number.
