Cité Europe makes shopping a privilege

Cité Europe, the biggest shopping centre in Northern France, located near to Calais in Coquelles, is launching a new Privilege Card scheme exclusively for cross channel visitors from the UK.

The Privilege Card includes permanent discounts at many stores, updated monthly offers at on-site shops, restaurants and leisure facilities and as part of the scheme, Cité Europe has set up a club in partnership with three main tourism sectors in Calais which include gastronomic restaurants, hotels and visitor attractions.

Cité Europe Privilege Card offers include:

• Seasonal in-store offers throughout the year
• Special offers at participating restaurants in Cité Europe
• bowling at “Quai 21” – one player free per family of four for one game
• 20% year-round and 50% seasonal family pass discounts to many tourist attractions
• 5% discount at gastronomic restaurants in the Toques d’Opale Group
• Free breakfast when staying at hotels in the Club Hotelier Group

Launched via an extensive marketing campaign across the UK, specially produced Cité Europe leaflets can be obtained from a network of outlets, including the Port of Dover and Eurotunnel’s Folkestone Terminal. On arrival at Cité Europe, these can then be presented at the centre’s information desk. Privilege Cards are then issued from here including further information on all special offers.

Cité Europe provides 147 shops, 20 restaurants and many leisure facilities to enjoy a full and varied day out in France. Shoppers can experience an extensive range of shops, including ladies and gents fashions, clothes and toys for children, houseware goods, gifts and sports equipment.

The on-site Carrefour hypermarket stocks a vast choice of traditional French produce, wines, beers and other alcohol products and there are many great bargains on drinks at the Tesco Wine store. Other attractions include The Disney Store, Toys r Us, C&A and perfume stores.
