The Tour of Britain comes to Lincolnshire on 2-3 September, and while the race itself won't pass through North Kesteven, the event is expected to attract thousands of visitors to the county, creating a valuable opportunity for local businesses to showcase what they offer.
Now is the perfect time to consider how you can make the most of the increased footfall and visitor interest. Whether you're a café, restaurant, retailer, attraction or accommodation provider, visitors travelling to and from the event may be looking for places to eat, shop, stay, and explore.
