Bowling Green, Ky. – Bowling Green is geared for shopping, as Expedia.com recently recognized in its feature on the best American towns for holiday shopping.

“We are home to many wonderful shops,” said Vicki Fitch, Executive Director of the Bowling Green Area Convention & Visitors Bureau. “Visitors and residents alike will be filled with holiday cheer as they do their shopping in Bowling Green. From locally-owned boutiques to the wonderful gift shops at our many attractions, shoppers can surely check items off their lists in Bowling Green.”

Expedia monitored more than three million social media posts, primarily on Twitter, and honed in on conversations relating to local shops and holiday markets, narrowing its list to the 25 most buzzworthy towns for holiday shopping in 2017.

“When it comes to holiday shopping, don’t get your tinsel in a tangle,” the Expedia article states. “You’ll find what you’re looking for in Bowling Green.”

One of the shopping highlights is Girls Day Out at the Sloan Convention Center on Nov. 18, which writer Chloe Mulliner says could allow you to have your shopping done before Thanksgiving.

“Forget about stressing over last-minute gift ideas and ordering overnight shipping,” Mulliner said. “In Bowling Green, you can get all your shopping done early, with plenty of time to enjoy the festivities. The Girls Day Out event and the year-round SoKY Marketplace are just two places where you can stock up on gifts.”

Also garnering attention from Expedia are the SoKY Ice Rink opening Nov. 17 in downtown Bowling Green and the Bowling Green Christmas Parade on Dec. 2.
