Christmas Community Entertainment
Yate Shopping Centre
School and community choirs, along with other musical attractions, will top the bill at Yate Shopping Centre in the weeks running-up to Christmas.
Andrew Lowrey, Yate Shopping Centre Manager, said: “We are proud to be part of a vibrant community here in Yate and are excited to be able to host and support so many local schools and community choirs throughout the festive period.
“In the week prior to Christmas there will also be entertainment at the Grotto on the days that Father Christmas is not with us, specifically for the youngsters who will have started their school holidays by then."
