WINDSOR PROMOTIONAL COMMERCIAL

Spotlight on Windsor: New Commercial Debuts Nationwide During Gran Fondo


The Town of Windsor has launched a new promotional commercial just in time for the 2025 Levi’s Gran Fondo. Designed to showcase Windsor’s vibrant downtown and welcoming spirit, the commercial highlights our unique local businesses, scenic beauty, and thriving food and wine scene.


The 60-second spot will air nationwide during the Gran Fondo livestream and will also be featured on DiscoverWindsor.com and the Town’s social media channels. Filmed in partnership with local businesses and produced by Definition Films, the commercial is part of a broader effort to attract visitors, support local commerce, and share what makes Windsor such a special place.


While not every business could be included in this first round, additional promotional videos are planned—and the footage captured will be shared with participating businesses to use in their own marketing efforts.
