The Swindon Designer Outlet has announced a full schedule for the Christmas period that includes a brand-new Makers Yard showcasing local talent.

McArthurGlen Swindon Designer Outlet Swindon has announced a schedule filled with creativity, community, and Christmas magic this holiday season. Offering a packed program of activities celebrating local makers, festive storytelling, and immersive experiences for visitors of all ages. 

The festivities kick off with Late Night Shopping on October 29th and 30th, providing shoppers with extended store hours, an extra 20% off outlet prices, free parking after 5pm, a dedicated concierge service, and a magician on October 30th, creating the perfect opportunity to get ahead on Christmas gifting in a joyful and relaxed atmosphere.

Beginning November 1st, Ramsbury Brewery will return with a bigger and better shop and bar located in the heart of the Centre, next to Haribo. Shoppers can unwind with a locally brewed pint or select festive favorites from Ramsbury’s award-winning range, providing the perfect complement to a day of shopping and seasonal fun. 

From November 24th, the celebrations continue with the launch of the brand-new Makers Yard, a vibrant showcase of over 25 talented local makers. Running through December, this festive market will be filled with handcrafted gifts, homewares, art, and festive treats, all celebrating the best of local creativity and craftsmanship. 

Throughout weekends in December, families can embark on A Journey to Christmas, an enchanting 30-minute interactive theatrical experience where children become the heroes of the story, helping to restart the festive train and deliver their wishes to the North Pole.  

With live characters, storytelling, and a magical meeting with Santa himself, it promises to be an unforgettable adventure filled with festive cheer. The Centre has said that tickets will be available to book soon. 

Additionally, on Thursdays and Fridays, little ones can enjoy Story Time with Santa, a cosy and heartwarming storytelling session aboard the Christmas Train, alongside special Gifting Evenings offering late-night shopping and festive surprises. 

“We’re thrilled to be transforming McArthurGlen Swindon into a festive wonderland this holiday season,” says Tina Cumpstey, Centre Manager at McArthurGlen Designer Outlet Swindon. “With a diverse range of activities and experiences, we’re excited to provide something for everyone to enjoy, creating lasting memories for families and friends.”
