A tourism campaign is using a major film release to attract thrill-seeking visitors to the North East.
Destination North East England has joined forces with VisitBritain and Sony Pictures to launch a campaign around the cinematic release of Academy Award-winning director Danny Boyle’s 28 Years Later, which was filmed at several iconic local landmarks.
As excitement builds for the follow-up to 28 Days Later, fans are being invited to explore film locations across the region, including Raby Castle, Kielder Forest and a recreated Sycamore Gap.
