Glasgow Fort unwraps festive celebrations
Christmas magic is set to return to Glasgow Fort as the centre unveils its seasonal line-up, featuring the return of its Christmas Markets, as well as an exciting schedule of Home –Alone-inspired character appearances.
The Christmas Markets will open from Thursday 20th November until Wednesday 31st December, located in the space outside of Primark, bringing a winter wonderland of stalls filled with festive favourites. From artisan food and handcrafted gifts to decorations and stocking fillers.
Visitors can also indulge in a tempting selection of festive bites, with a mix of sweet and savoury treats served up from food stalls dotted around the market - including the awaited return of the beloved Yorkshire pudding wraps and the German bar.
The markets will sit alongside a family funfair, complete with candy cane trampolines and swinging chairs.
And that’s not all – this December, visitors can step into Kevin’s Christmas Adventure: Lost in The Fort! as characters inspired by the festive movie favourite, Home Alone, will roam the centre, meeting shoppers, snapping selfies and sharing plenty of Christmas cheer.
The characters will appear for 30-minute intervals at 11am – 4pm, giving families plenty of chances to capture the festive fun. The line-up includes:
Kevin and the Christmas bandits - Saturday 29th November
The Pigeon Lady and Reindeer Food Giveaways - Saturday 6th December
The Big Band (bringing big brass energy and a New York-style soundtrack) - Saturday 13th December
Kevin and the Christmas bandits return - Saturday 20th December
There will also be a brand-new ‘Guess the Code’ Christmas challenge taking place on Saturday 6th December, inviting visitors to participate in a playful game of guess the code or key at the Bellboy Trolley suitcase steal for the chance to win prizes from Lush, M&S, Wagamama and Boots.
