The Visit York Visitor Information Centre has officially opened the doors to its new city centre home at 28 Back Swinegate, York.

Managed by Make It York, the Visitor Information Centre has relocated from its former premises at 21 Parliament Street to its new location, just 140 metres, less than two-minutes away.  

Sarah Loftus, Managing Director of Make It York, said: "We’re thrilled to welcome you all to our new home. Our fantastic team is looking forward to continuing to share their expert advice and knowledge, while helping even more people discover the very best of York and the surrounding area. We'll see you there!"

Open seven days a week, the new Visitor Information Centre offers a more welcoming space in the heart of the city, where the friendly and knowledgeable team continue to provide the trusted service that has made it an essential first stop for exploring York and beyond.  

With improved facilities and more space to showcase the city's attractions and experiences, the new premises provide an even better visitor experience.  

Visitors can pick up free maps, guides and brochures, purchase tickets for attractions, experiences and transport, and buy the Visit York Pass, in addition to offering a curated selection of locally made gifts and souvenirs.
