Ready to find your Happy Place?
A 40-year study by the European Society of Cardiology revealed that taking a proper holiday from work could help people live longer by a whopping 63%. With this in mind, British Airways Holidays has teamed up with Fearne Cotton’s Happy Place – a lifestyle and wellness brand founded by the British broadcast personality and passionate advocate for mental and physical wellness.
British Airways Holidays is sponsoring the Talk Stage at the upcoming Happy Place festival (now in its fourth year), which will host a number of incredible guests. You’ll be able to visit British Airways Holidays in a dedicated teepee, designed to help festivalgoers find their holiday bliss.
