At a time when screen tourism inspires travellers like never before, Starring GREAT Britain invites visitors from its most valuable inbound markets—including Australia, the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) countries, France, Germany, and the USA—to discover Britain through the cinematic lens of film and TV shows. The campaign celebrates Britain’s role as a world-leading destination for screen production while showcasing its diverse landscapes and tourism experiences. Launching Tuesday 28 January, it features a blockbuster-inspired film directed by Academy Award-winning British director Tom Hooper, celebrating Britain’s starring role in iconic film and TV moments—from Mission: Impossible to Bridget Jones, Spider-Man to Succession, House of the Dragon to Harry Potter, and more. The film takes viewers on a cinematic journey through Britain, offering a front-row seat to the breathtaking locations behind these productions. As well as the launch film, the multi-media advertising campaign uses a mix of channels to showcase destinations across England, Scotland and Wales as the backdrop to great stories, action and adventure. People will see the campaign on large digital billboards in locations from the famous Kurfürstendamm in Berlin, Germany, to Gare du Nord Station in Paris, France, from the City Walk hub in Dubai, UAE, to the Jeddah Corniche in Saudi Arabia, alongside branded content across social media.
