Coventry is buzzing with activity this September, and there’s plenty to enjoy for all our businesses in the city centre. Coventry Cocktail Week is already underway, running until 14th September, giving those with wristbands the chance to explore some of the city’s best bars, restaurants, and venues with exclusive offers, menus, and one-of-a-kind cocktail creations.
 
It was great to see so many of our amazing city centre businesses at the Opening Night of Coventry Cocktail Week on Friday 5th September at Turtle Bay, it was an evening of great cocktails, great food and great company.
 
Hot on its heels, Heritage Open Days begin on 12th September, opening doors to Coventry’s history, hidden gems, and fascinating spaces that aren’t always accessible to the public. From guided tours and talks to special exhibitions and behind-the-scenes experiences, it’s the perfect opportunity to discover more about the city’s rich past while enjoying everything the present has to offer.
 

 
BID UPDATES
How Daily Check-ins from Coventry BID Ltd Street Patrol Make a Real Difference
At Coventry BID, supporting our city centre businesses goes far beyond events and promotions. One of the most valued services we provide is the daily presence of our Street Patrol Team—a friendly, reliable, and reassuring point of contact for businesses, their staff, and their customers.

Every day, our patrol officers make it a priority to check in with businesses. Whether it’s speaking with the store manager, a member of the security team, or even weekend staff, these regular visits provide not only reassurance but also a visible sense of safety.

Recently, one store manager shared a powerful comment with us:
“Just having the patrol team walk through the store is unmeasurable. You never know how many potential shoplifters have been deterred simply by seeing them.”

This feedback highlights something we often hear - our patrols are not just about responding when issues arise, but about preventing incidents before they happen. That simple presence, that visible deterrent, is invaluable to businesses who work tirelessly to serve our community.

For staff, especially those working evenings or weekends, knowing that Coventry BID Street Patrol are nearby offers peace of mind. For businesses, it means support, communication, and partnership in keeping the city centre a safe and welcoming place for everyone.

We’re proud of the work our patrol team does every single day, and equally proud of the relationships they continue to build with businesses across Coventry.
