The France Show 2011 - À Bientôt!

Win tickets and lunch at the Earls Court show

Londoners have voted France the number one short haul destination* for a happy holiday.

The survey - conducted by the organisers of The France Show 2011 examined various components of a holiday, including: the quality of accommodation; the food; length of travel to destination; weather; duration; travelling companions and cost.

Despite the recent popularity of the staycation, and our long-standing love affair with Spain, the study showed that a getaway to France is more likely to lead to a happy holiday experience for Londoners than any other destination in Europe.

For those in need of a French fix to boost happiness levels throughout the winter months, fret not, France is coming to the UK.

From 14 to 16 January 2011, The France Show will bring the very best of French life to Earls Court, London. The finest in French food, wine, shopping, travel, culture and property will be brought together in one place so Londoners can enjoy a little bit of French ‘je ne sais quoi’ right on their doorstep.

For some, a more permanent French connection is called for. Not only is France the destination for happy holidays, it has also been awarded the accolade of ‘the best place to live in Europe’ according to the annual Quality of Life Index. So why not visit The French Property Exhibition, hosted within The France Show, and explore the option of buying your dream pied-à-terre, chateau or farmhouse in France. They’ll be estate agents, developers, solicitors, banks and other professionals providing free advice to guide you through every aspect of buying property in France – with confidence.

Tickets are now on sale for The France Show 2011 – book online at www.thefranceshow.com or call 0844 871 8817.
