Fresh from performing for the Queen at her Diamond Jubilee celebrations, pop icon Jessie J is heading to Shrewsbury to play another sell-out show at the Quarry – and one local caravan park is feeling the benefits.
With a crowd of 10,000 set to descend on the town for the concert on Friday (July 6th), Morris Leisure’s Oxon Hall Touring Park on the edge of the Shropshire town has seen a surge in bookings.
The five-star site has space for 100 touring pitches and offers a further 60 static holiday homes, and demand for accommodation has shot upwards since the last ticket for the gig was sold.
Edward Goddard, managing director of the Shrewsbury-based caravan park group, said her arrival in the historic town has brought a “massive boost” for many local businesses.
“Our bookings have certainly increased over that weekend, which we attribute to her many fans wishing to stay in the town,” he revealed.
With spaces going fast, Mr Goddard advised any fans still looking for accommodation to book quickly, remarking that it has great transport links into the town as it is just a short walk from the local park and ride scheme bus stop.
