Our local shopping centre is Festival Place in Basingstoke, just off the M3 in Hampshire. It’s a really nice, clean and modern centre with large walk ways (perfect for buggies) housing over 160 big brand stores including Apple, Debenhams, M&S, Zara, Schuh, Pandora, Oasis and Gap. The shopping facilities are complemented by some awesome family friendly restaurants including; Wagamama, Coal Bar & Grill, La Tasca and Pizza Express, and a 10-screen Vue cinema.
Festival Place also host some great seasonal activities. We can’t wait to see what they have lined up for Autumn and Winter 2015. Last year we watched the Fireworks and the Christmas Light switch on (this year it’s on Friday 13th November – Ooooo spooky!) and we’re looking forward to experiencing the Black Friday sales which land on Friday 27th November.
So if you are in the area and fancy a pleasant shopping trip with the kids then this is the ‘festive’ place for you this autumn and Winter.
Love Bella x
