ONE of the biggest days in Ballymena’s retail calendar is returning on Thursday, November 2, as the town prepares for their now annual ‘Discount Day’, organised by the Ballymena Business Improvement District (BID).

Running from 9am to 9pm in shops throughout the town, it offers shoppers deals and special discounts for one day only.

Alison Moore, manager of the Ballymena BID said shoppers will benefit from numerous reductions, as well as on-street entertainment from Martello Jazz Band.

“Ballymena’s Discount Day has become one of the largest shopping days for Ballymena, not only for the retailers, but for the people who come from far and wide. We have had people attending from all over Northern Ireland, and as far away as Scotland. Given the compactness of our town, shoppers can walk from one end of the town to the other in less than 15 minutes."
