A new video designed to show what's on offer in Herne Bay this Christmas has proved an instant hit online.

Made by the Bay Promo Team, the two-minute montage profiles a number of events being held from now until the big day in December.

Since it was launched last Thursday, the video has been viewed more than 3,500 times.

Gerald McCarthy, a member of the Bay Promo Team, said there is lots on offer this festive season.

He said: "Bearing in mind we are a little seaside town, it’s loaded with Christmas events going on and it should be great.

"With so much going on in the town, just putting it on a poster didn’t do it justice. So we thought we would make a short video and it’s already been shared to death!

"The town deserves something a bit more glitzy at this time of year. With mobiles and tablets nowadays, people prefer an interactive experience."

"The video provides an overview and the detail can be found on our website if people want times, locations and everything else.

"We are quite pleased with it – it’s all good."
