Fred. Holidays has unveiled ‘Fred. Bridge Holidays’, a dedicated programme aimed at Bridge playing groups in the UK, providing opportunities to explore beautiful destinations with the card game at the heart of each holiday.

Fred. Bridge Holidays are aimed at both beginner and experienced players and can be tailored to the needs of the group.

Each holiday is designed around excursions and the weather. Daytime sessions offer competitive Bridge and free time, while evening sessions include prizes. 

Seminars and workshops are held twice a week to help players sharpen their skills. There are also friendly hosts who can make up a table as needed and introduce fellow travellers so that each holiday combines a blend of challenge, companionship and relaxation.

Bridge consultant Declan Treanor, who has created these trips with Fred. Holidays, said: “Developing high quality Bridge holidays has been my passion for many years and as a Bridge player I know what works. Every hotel we are using is one I have stayed at and know meets the needs of Bridge players including those who may have mobility concerns.

“We are starting with a full overseas holiday programme and will add UK destinations soon. By being flexible on duration and having the only flight centre in this niche market, we offer a compelling level of service for the discerning Bridge holidaymaker.”
