About Bala Tourism Association

The Bala & Penllyn Tourism Association exists to promote tourism in the Bala & Penllyn area and to publicise, promote, develop and market Bala & Penllyn for tourism with resultant economic benefit to the area.

The Association was set-up as a sub-group of Antur Penllyn, the regeneration organisation for the area. Anyone with an interest in the success of tourism in the Bala & Penllyn area is welcome to join and thus support the Association and its objectives, whether they have a tourism business or not.

The Association is a non-profit making voluntry, community organisation run by members for the benefit of members and the local community.

The officers of the Association are:

• Chair: Stephanie Hickish,
• Secretary: Hazel Price,
• Treasurer: Julie Rogers.

Members of the Association include those involved with accommodation, attractions, activities, restaurants and shops.

The Association meets typically once a month and prospective members are welcome to attend a meeting before joining.

The Association sets-up sub-committees on specific areas and this website was developed by the marketing sub-committee.

The association has a separate website VisitBala for accommodation, things to do and much more
