Bracknell Town Centre

Sunday November 26th 2006

A showcase of fashion shows, family attractions and the exclusive unveiling of Bracknell’s spectacular Christmas structure: The Bauble

What’s on offer: With Christmas just around the corner, bring the family to Bracknell Town Centre for an action packed day of activities; there’s something for everyone!

Don’t worry if you haven’t found that perfect winter wardrobe yet. Fashion shows featuring adult fashion for men and women including plus size, and childrenswear, will be staged throughout the day – be inspired by the latest winter fashion collections, from stylish day wear to high glam and sparkle, and something for our younger visitors, Bracknell has it all. You’ll get great fashion ideas to update the whole family’s wardrobes.

Don’t miss the live shows staged at times to suit you between your shopping:
* 11am and 2.30pm: “Fall into winter” - beautiful daywear for the office or leisure
* 1.30pm and 3.30pm: “Drop Dead Gorgeous” – evening wear that says just that.

In the afternoon, Father Christmas will be making his way round Broadway on his fantastic Huskie sleigh. Joining him on this magical Christmas parade will be South Hill Park Cinderella panto characters, a local Dance Troup as well as Bracknell Forest Borough Councils’ infamous horses, Bracken & Bramble. Children will be able to meet the Huskies in the town centre from 12.45pm until 4.00pm. They will also have the chance to meet Father Christmas and tell him about their Christmas wish list, in person, in his Grotto in Princess Square until 5.00pm.

But that’s not all! At 3pm watch in wonder at the unveiling of Bracknell’s spectacular Christmas sculpture: The Bauble. Designed specifically for Bracknell by sculptor Michael Condron, this stunning art display is reminiscent of a massive Christmas decoration with shiny metal snowflakes linking to form a series of spheres on a glittering white background. Inspired by Bracknell’s unique spirit and attitude, children from local schools also helped create the sculpture by designing individual snowflakes to form the Bauble’s outer shell, as well as artwork pieces that fill the windows in the Baubles walls. Intriguing and interactive, The Bauble brings something unique and exciting to Bracknell Town Centre for everyone to enjoy.

With over 190 favourite retailers, cafes, bars and restaurants, open seven days a week, free parking on all late night shopping nights (every Thursday from & including 23rd November – 21 December 2006 and every night from Monday 18th December – Friday 22nd December) and all Sundays, there’s much more to discover in Bracknell.
