Christmas is coming to Castle Quay Shopping Centre
It’s beginning to look a lot like Christmas at Castle Quay Shopping Centre.
From Saturday 2nd December, families can come and meet Father Christmas in his very special winter wonderland Grotto at the Banbury Museum. As well as meeting Santa, each child will receive a lovely gift, a personalised Christmas activity pack and a very special Santa Museum Trail. Booking is essential and is £8.50 per child. For dates and booking visit www.banburymuseum.org.
Then, before their big Christmas adventure begins, Santa’s reindeer will also be stopping off at Castle Quay in Banbury. On Sunday 3rd December from 11am to 4pm, shoppers can come and meet three friendly reindeer and even sit in Santa’s sleigh. Plus there will be free face painting throughout the day. The reindeer will be located outside the Cherwell entrance to Castle Quay.
Other free family fun this Christmas includes a visit from Bjorn, the animatronic Polar Bear, who will be joined by his handler for magical interactive performances between 5pm and 8pm on Thursday 7th December and a Giant Snowglobe on Sunday 10th December from 11am to 4pm.
