Liverpool ONE will sprinkle some Christmas magic and snow over the city center this year, allowing visitors to celebrate Christmas like never before.
A giant bauble, ice sculptures, and a weekend of ‘snow’ are just some of the plans being revealed today (Tuesday 10 September) as part of the packed Christmas schedule of magical moments at Liverpool ONE.
This Christmas will see the return of the iconic neon Christmas tree, illuminated decorations and, of course, Bar Hütte, offering visitors the opportunity to sing their hearts out in karaoke booths with a festive glass of fizz, underneath the giant Christmas tree on Chavasse Park from 8 November.
New for this year on Chavasse Park will be children’s rides, including a carousel, plus a festive authentic German grill offering visitors a host of traditional Christmas flavours.
Also returning this year is visitors’ favourite competition, giving away £4,000 worth of prizes from Liverpool ONE brands including some of this season’s must-have items. The Advent Calendar Giveaway runs over 12 days from the 1-12 December.
As part of a bumper Christmas Shopping Weekend on 16 and 17 November, Liverpool ONE will create an extra early White Christmas as snow will fall, creating an idyllic picture-perfect scene.
Visitors can also expect in-store activations, entertainers, flash mobs with Santa and his elves, while a Golden Ticket competition will give one lucky winner the chance to win £500 to spend on Christmas shopping at Liverpool ONE.
Throughout November and December in the run up to Christmas, every Thursday starting from 21 November, visitors can expect magical Christmas moments including ice sculptures; karaoke singalongs from Santa and his Elves; a silent disco; choirs and carol singer takeovers.
For those looking for family-friendly winter activities, the Christmas Trail will give children and families the chance to enjoy a magical tour of Liverpool ONE, with an interactive map and fun festive challenges.
Donna Howitt, Place Strategy Director at Liverpool ONE, said:
“Nowhere does Christmas quite like Liverpool! As a city, we love Christmas shopping, so it’s only right that Liverpool ONE provides the best atmosphere for visitors to soak up some festive ambiance while buying those special gifts for their loved ones.
“This year, we’re bringing something new and exciting to Liverpool ONE, with ‘Magical Moments´– from fun activities to pop-up performances and competitions, we’re looking forward to kicking off our official countdown to Christmas.
“There’s lots more to be announced so watch this space!”
Callum Winsper, Operations Manager at Bar Hütte, said:
“We’re so pleased to bring Bar Hütte back to Liverpool ONE for another year. Our festive karaoke hüttes, lively courtyard and schedule of family events have become a holiday favourite in the city, and we’re proud to continue this tradition.
