Manchester Arndale is giving away heaps of prizes in the lead up to Christmas, with new goodies up for grabs each week until the big day.
From Saturday 7th December, WE DO XMAS Live will help shoppers by offering gift inspiration matched to different personas we all know and love, as well as the chance to win everything in sight.
With a new persona taking the spotlight each week, head to the giant present on the Lower Mall near Superdrug to nominate your loved one to win.
The Ministry of Cheer, the Arndale’s official department dedicated to boosting Christmas spirit will also be patrolling the mall, measuring festive levels and handing out sweet treats along the way. Not far behind them will be the Christmas Wrappers rap crew, bringing beats, banter and plenty of festive fun. They’ll be dropping rhymes, hosting lip sync battles and challenging visitors to games as they roam the malls.
