Support Britain’s £845m seaside arcade economy this half-term, Bacta urges
Hundreds of thousands of people are being urged to support their seaside arcades as the half-term gets underway. The campaign from Bacta follows a further relaxation of Covid-19 restrictions from the UK Government as families across the nation hope to let their hair down and enjoy a much-deserved break.
Support for seaside arcades is essential for many local and regional economies on the coasts of Britain and these gaming centres provide safe places for children and adults of all ages to have fun.
These seaside arcades and related activities contributed a significant turnover of £845m to the UK economy a Gross Value Added of £451m in 2018 (before the pandemic) and were responsible for employing 19,235 people with a cost of employment valuing £292m.
The report, compiled by independent research consultancy Centre for Economics and Business Research Ltd. (Cebr), entitled ‘The contributions of seaside arcades to the UK economy’, calculated the value of the seaside arcade sector to the UK economy, both directly and indirectly.
The research also considered the direct economic contributions made, as well as the wider economic footprint supported through indirect (supply-chain) and induced (wider-spending) impact layers.
Bacta’s most recent call to action follows the trade organisation’s successful Siding With The Seaside Campaign, which highlighted the economic issues costal communities face.
Bacta CEO John White said: “Seaside arcades are at the heart of many costal communities across the UK and they have been particularly hard hit by the pandemic. As this half-term takes off, we are urging people across Britain support their arcade as they enjoy their much-deserved breaks with their loved ones.
“Not only does the seaside arcade economy support almost 20,000 jobs, but the sector generated a staggering £845m in turnover per year before the Covid-19 outbreak. Seaside arcades are a great way to have fun on the coast and they also offer a safe and friendly place for families and other patrons to relax.”

New hero video brings together four football icons as Stake aims to place fans at the centre of the global football conversation
Stake Unveils Ambassador-Led Football Campaign
Stake has unveiled a new international football campaign featuring brand ambassadors Iker Casillas, Sergio Agüero, Eden Hazard and Patrice Evra, bringing together four of the game’s most recognisable figures in a hero video designed to capture the anticipation, excitement and emotion surrounding one of football’s biggest global tournaments.
The campaign, titled “It’s All At Stake”, forms part of Stake’s wider strategy to engage football fans across key international markets during a period expected to dominate sporting and cultural conversations around the world. The full campaign film is now available to watch on YouTube.
Four Football Icons, One Global Campaign
Created in partnership with specialist production teams, the campaign follows the four former internationals as they navigate the excitement, pressure and unpredictability that make major football tournaments such a unique global spectacle.
Combining humour, personality and football nostalgia, the creative reflects Stake’s continued investment in culturally relevant content that resonates with sports fans beyond the action on the pitch.
