Liverpool ONE launches Christmas countdown, with an evening of festive fun, including resident elves, tap dancing turkeys and pop-up pantos.
Taking place on Friday 12th November, Liverpool ONE’s official Christmas launch promises to be the perfect way to kick-start the countdown to Christmas, as the estate is transformed into a festive wonderland with a little help from some life size squirrels, walking presents and live entertainment.
Ensuring no one goes home empty handed, Liverpool ONE are working with The Mersey Forest and Liverpool City Council to distribute mini Christmas trees to take home and plant in your garden, increasing the tree coverage of the region and country. You can pick yours up from Upper South John Street on November 12th, 21st and 28th.
Much-loved favourites such as Bar Hutte – complete with festive ‘carol-oke’ – will be making its return underneath the spectacular Christmas tree on Paradise Street, offering live music and a tempting menu of festive cocktails.
Donna Howitt, Place Strategy Director at Liverpool ONE, said:
“This time of year is always exciting as everyone starts to gear up for the festive season. With plenty of new additions to the retail line up this year, the offer is strong and we’re looking forward to welcoming festive shoppers to Liverpool ONE.
“And, while we are constantly abreast of any Government announcements, all indicators suggest people want to get out shopping and come together this season and we want to ensure this festive season is one which people will never forget – and for all of the right reasons.
“Our launch night is always filled with lots of surprises and has a real buzz in the air – this year is, of course, all the more special as we couldn’t hold such an event last year, so we’re really looking forward to kicking off Christmas with a whole lot of fun!”
Liverpool ONE is working with Marketing Liverpool to put the spotlight on the city at Christmas following a very successful summer for domestic tourism. A brand new creative sign-off has been launched – ‘Liverpool. Feels like Christmas’ – creating a compelling message to visit Liverpool during the festive season.
