Families can meet Santa on a Ferris Wheel ride at Cheshire Oaks this Christmas

Families can meet Santa while riding a Ferris Wheel this festive season.

Cheshire Oaks is set to host a range of festive events in the run up to Christmas, with its decorations already up and ready for people to visit. Among the Christmas activities is the new Santa in the Sky experience.

A huge new Ferris Wheel is opening at Cheshire Oaks from November 9, offering guests breath-taking views of the Cheshire skyline. The wheel will be located next to the centre’s Christmas tree, which is more than 100 ft tall.

From December, guests will also be able to 'take flight' with Santa as part of the Cheshire Oaks Designer Outlet’s first-ever Santa in the Sky activity. Families wishing to meet Santa will be able to ride the big wheel with Santa and his right-hand elf in a VIP, never-before-seen experience.

Afterwards, guests will be able to also enjoy a festive treat and a drink at the centre’s Winter Village as part of the ticket price. Cheshire Oaks’ Winter Village has undergone a makeover for 2022, with more indoor seating options now available in addition to the bookable Christmas huts for guests to snuggle up in while enjoying a festive drink.

The German Christmas market-inspired Alpine Lodge within the Winter Village offers everything from bratwurst to hot mulled wine and hot chocolate. From November 25, there will also be live performances from local acts, including gospel choirs, brass bands and other festive singers, at Cheshire Oaks.

Kenny Murray, general manager at McArthurGlen Designer Outlet Cheshire Oaks, said: “We are excited to announce Christmas is officially at the Cheshire Oaks Designer Outlet! From our iconic Winter Village to the never-before-seen Santa in the Sky experience, we have made sure our guests will have an unforgettable experience visiting our centre this festive season.

“We are confident our unbeatable prices across a selection of much-loved premium brands such as Charlotte Tilbury, Carvela, Pinko or Michael Kors will allow our guests to shop for the best festive gifts whilst also enjoying the holiday cheer through the many activities scheduled this winter at Cheshire Oaks Designer Outlet.”

Those wishing to experience the new Santa in the Sky activity are encouraged to book their slot as soon as possible as tickets are limited. You can book online here .
