Santa’s almost here! |
|
On the 17 November you can join the fun of Santa’s Procession as a giant magical train lantern carries Santa through the malls and down to Middleton Hall to open his magnificent Grotto! Wave and cheer as the long winding train with its enchanting illuminated lanterns and sparkling costumes, wends its way, dancing and singing through the shopping centre towards the Christmas show. After a break of several years there’s a welcome return of Santa’s Express train ride. Customers of all ages will be able to take a route along Christmassy woodland scenes and through a rocky tunnel and rustic gateway. This year Santa will be sharing his grotto with customers for the train ride as it will be an old fashioned station from which Santa’s Express will depart. Alongside the railway track will be a meandering passageway of cute magical shops to walk through. Selling everything from wizard cloaks, to potions, owls and broomsticks – the shops will provide everything needed for the budding young Wizard or Witch. Familiar branding of shop names will have a magical twist to keep things light hearted and everyone amused. |
That’s right, the big man is nearly here at thecentre:mk. Santa and his elves have been beavering away in the North pole and he’s in the process of packing his sleigh for his annual visit to the Christmas show in Middleton Hall at thecentre:mk. The ever popular Santa’s Grotto will open on 17 November with a procession thorough the malls featuring a lantern parade by local school children at 4:30pm.
