Keep the festive celebrations going at this winter wonderland

Sponsored: There’s ‘s-no-w’ way you’ll want to miss out on this magical festive market…

If you’ve not filled up with enough Christmas cheer yet then you need to get yourself to Bluewaters island, where there’s a magical festive market running until January 5.

At the entrance, guests can marvel at a stunning 12-metre tall bespoke tree, whether it’s in all its glory in the day, or twinkling by night.

There are giant snow machines too that cover the winter wonderland throughout the day – so there’s s-no-w way you’ll feel like you missed out on a white Christmas.

Be sure to snap a selfie at the 5-metre-long ‘freeze wall’ – perfect for capturing loved ones in frozen poses, or catch some live music at one of the venue’s several stages. 

Mimes, balloon acts and acrobats will all be roaming the event to keep passers by entertained, while live musicians such as saxophonists and beat boxers will take to the stages.

As well as shopping for unique gifts you may have forgotten first time around at the market stalls, adults can head to the Caesars Palace lounge,where sweet treats and licensed beverages will be on offer.

There will be heaps to keep the little ones in the festive spirit too, including face painting, balloon bending and children’s workshops where little ones can get creative.

Plus, if you head down on New Year’s Eve, you’ll be able to enjoy prime firework views too, as well as all the winter wonderland fun and games.

We’ll see you by the snow machine…
