Liverpool ONE is set to transform into a winter wonderland this Christmas, with a brand-new 30-metre tree, curling, karaoke and a new ‘Wishmas’ celebration among the festive attractions announced for 2026.
The celebrations will begin at Chavasse Park with the launch of Stone’s Throw Social, a new competitive socialising experience featuring eight ice-free curling lanes, six karaoke huts and two shuffleboard tables.
Stone’s Throw Social will open on Saturday 3 October and run until Sunday 3 January 2027, with pre-booked packages available alongside walk-ins on the day.
Liverpool ONE’s Christmas transformation will continue from Friday 6 November, when a new collection of decorations is unveiled across the shopping and leisure destination.
At the heart of the display will be a giant new 30-metre Christmas tree at Paradise Place, which visitors will be able to walk through for the first time.
Other new decorations will include a twinkling light canopy at Peter’s Lane and Keys Court, a light curtain at the Church Street and Keys Court entrance, and a light drape and supersized suspended bauble at Peter’s Square.
Several familiar Liverpool ONE festive favourites will also return for 2026, including the popular bauble arch, reindeer and angel wings, providing plenty of Christmas photo opportunities for visitors.
The Christmas Toy Parade will make its return on Saturday 14 November in collaboration with Walk The Plank.
The parade will see dancing toys, festive characters and Santa make their way through Liverpool ONE as part of the seasonal celebrations.
Festive Thursdays will also return throughout December, bringing free live entertainment to Liverpool ONE, alongside a programme of Christmas choir performances featuring local charities and community groups.
For the first time, Liverpool ONE will also host a special ‘Wishmas’ event on Saturday 5 December, giving visitors the chance to win prizes and enjoy free festive entertainment.
Brendan Hattam, Centre Director at Liverpool ONE, said:
“At Liverpool ONE, Christmas is always a special time and this year it will be even more so. From our brand-new Christmas decorations to the return of our well-loved Toy Parade, we are very excited to bring guests together to feel a bit of Christmas magic in our centre, especially with the arrival of Stone’s Throw Social. There will definitely be something for everyone to enjoy this winter.”
Marty Finney, Creative Director at Stone’s Throw Social, said:
“At Stone’s Throw Social, we believe the best times are the ones you talk about afterwards. That’s why we’re bringing ice-free curling, karaoke, shuffleboard, great food and drinks to Chavasse Park at Liverpool ONE from October to January, creating this winter’s most social get-together. A place for colleagues, friends and families to come together, enjoy a little friendly competition and make memories that last long after the night ends.”
Extended Christmas shopping hours will operate from Monday 14 December until Wednesday 23 December.
