To showcase Britain’s cultural assets, VisitBritain has created a new film, Britain Celebrates, that received its debut in Beijing and showcases the culture of an exciting and inspiring, modern, 21st century destination.
To a soundtrack of Simon Webbe’s ‘Grace’, ‘Britain Celebrates’ reflects the unique breadth and depth of the nation’s culture – from cutting edge art installations to historic royal palaces – and its appeal to tomorrow’s travellers, younger and newer visitors, through its strong educational links and its arts, fashion, music, film and sport that are followed globally. The film ranges from ballet, orchestra and theatre productions to events at the Eden Project, Shakespeare’s Globe, Natural History Museum, Wales Millennium Centre and Liverpool Capital of Culture, as well as pop and rock concerts, Banksy and Gormley, Highland Games, the Sultan’s Elephant, ethnic celebrations and the Edinburgh Festival
