"Bon Temps Beaumont" Campaign Launches to Bring the Good Times Back to Beaumont

BEAUMONT, Texas, Feb. 10, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- In 2020, we told you to picture the good times ahead, hang tough and explore when the time is right. Well friends, it's 2021 and that time has finally come.

Maybe we were prematurely excited for a new decade. A fresh start. The potential to live our best lives. But we should've known better. No one celebrates turning 20. The fun starts when you turn 21. We're declaring 2021 our year for guaranteed good times. And ya'll are invited to the celebration.

With the new year, the Beaumont Convention and Visitors Bureau is launching a new #GoodTimes campaign called, "Bon Temps Beaumont," to turn the tide on 2020 and welcome the new year with a fresh mindset and a renewed sense of community through pledging to create entertaining and fun experiences for both locals and visitors for the entire year.

What does this mean exactly? Simply, getting people excited about visiting Southeast Texas in any way we can. We're expanding Restaurant Week, launching Beaulympics this summer, holding popups, and offering food and drink specials throughout the year. From monthly meetups to citywide tournaments, the Beaumont CVB has a variety of innovative ideas to draw business to all economic sectors.

"We're reaching out to all area restaurants, shops, hotels, bars, anyone who touches a visitor and imploring them to think about how they can offer guaranteed good times to locals and visitors," said Christina Lokey, Marketing Director. "This can include anything from extended happy hours to signature drinks, and things even wilder like gator races and midnight pajama parties that get people talking. We want all our local businesses to get creative, think big, and use our collective resources to make it happen."

We want this year to be the best in every possible way and to offer meaningful and memorable experiences that'll surprise, delight and inspire. We have big things in the works – stay tuned.
