Drake Circus and The Barcode will kick start its seasonal celebrations on Thursday (13th November) with the return of its popular annual Christmas Light Switch On and visits from special festive characters.
The official light switch on will take place at 5:00pm, transforming the centre into a twinkling spectacle, and there’s a ho-ho-whole range of festive activities scheduled throughout the evening to boost Christmas cheer.
The Elf-a-Oke team will be on hand from 3:30pm to get the party started, encouraging visitors to join in and singalong to their favourite holiday hits.
Meanwhile, the Merry Magician will also be roaming the centre throughout the evening, dazzling visitors with sleight of hand tricks and seasonal surprises.
Additionally, adults and children alike will delight in the centre’s magical ‘snow flurries’ at 4:00pm, which will see Drake Circus blanketed in snowfall and transformed into a winter wonderland. Snow flurries will then take place every day until Christmas Eve at the Old Town Street entrance.
