Promotional activity in Kent

After the successful opening of our 2nd High Speed rail station in Kent at Ebbsfleet, the region's continental connections have gone from strength to strength. With Ashford's traveller numbers increasing and Ebbsfleet starting to find it's feet just 5 minutes from Bluewater there are various activities and promotions planned and taking place at these locations and around the region. The Eurostar shop at Bluewater continues to be a great way for the public to interact with the shop and this location is often ideal for promotional activity and events, click here to find out what's going on at the moment or what has recently happened...
