Revitalise

Injecting life, energy and colour into Croydon through attractive outdoor spaces, family-friendly leisure events, and a kaleidoscope of entertainment.

No matter what your taste or interests, Croydon’s got a great deal to offer.

To boost the local economy and enhance experiences and perceptions of Croydon, we focus on infusing the town with life, energy, and colour. This includes creating appealing outdoor spaces and expanding leisure and entertainment options.

We also promote the town centre through seasonal and targeted campaigns, adding extra value to the experience.

In collaboration with local partners, Croydon BID drives projects and initiatives to improve everyone’s experience and impression of the town centre.

Principal activities include:

From music festivals to art exhibitions and food markets, we create an exciting calendar of events that cater to every interest and age group.
We raise awareness of Croydon town centre’s retail, dining, and leisure scene through our strategic marketing campaigns and promotional activities.
Situated at the heart of Croydon’s bustling commercial centre, the North End pedestrian area serves as a popular backdrop for a wide range of entertainment, promotions, and activities.
By transforming empty sites with art installations, we breathe new life into forgotten corners, making them focal points of attraction.

The need to transform our town centre, consider alternative activations and innovative temporary uses is imperative as we look to move forward. It is equally clear that we need to attract people back to Croydon with a diverse mix of events and activities that will improve the overall appeal of our town centre. Our collaboration with Croydon BID means we can do far more in attracting those that live, work and visit the town centre. They are a vital cog in our recovery.
