It’s the most wonderful time of year at White Rose Shopping Centre, as its much-loved Christmas grotto officially opens tomorrow (Saturday 6 November 2021).
Visitors are invited to meet the magical man in red at the centre’s magical grotto, where they’ll enjoy a meeting with Santa and his elves as well as receive a special gift to take away.
The event is opening for a special preview weekend on 6-7 November, and will be open daily from Saturday 13 November right up to 4pm on Christmas Eve to ensure that little ones of Leeds can make all of their last-minute requests.
Steven Foster, Centre Director at White Rose, said:
“We’re already getting into the festive spirit here at White Rose, and we can tell our guests are too – we’ve received lots of questions about Santa’s arrival. We’re excited to help ensure this Christmas is one to remember.”
What’s more, the centre will be launching a very special festive trail later in November. Stay tuned for announcements on White Rose’s social channels and website.
White Rose is also launching its Christmas hours from Monday 6 December. The centre will be open from 9am–9pm Monday to Friday, 9am–8pm Saturdays, and 11am–5pm Sundays from 6 December to 19 December, with even longer hours in the final run-up to Christmas: 9am–10pm from the Monday 20 to Thursday 23 December.
Last-minute shoppers will be pleased to know that White Rose will remain open from 8am-5pm on Christmas Eve, and early birds will enjoy extended hours on Black Friday, 26 November, from 9am-9pm. Boxing Day sale shoppers can browse bargains from 10am–4pm on 26 December.
Offering more than 100 shops and restaurants, including family favourites such as The Entertainer and Build-a-Bear Workshop, White Rose is the perfect festive day out destination. Look out for seasonal menus at Fridays and Pizza Hut and activities for all ages at The Escapologist.
