Union Street Wanderland

Our community is getting together to light up the windows of Union Street for the festive season and add a bit of fun to the street. Here is what we've got going on: 

The street will be dressing up their windows from the 13th of November. We will be running online workshops for residents to learn how to make silhouette window decor and how to light them up. Materials are available at no cost. Get in touch. The best time to view the street is when it's dark to see them lit up, but they can be enjoyed anytime. 

16 businesses have a wooden letter hidden in their windows. Together the 16 letters make a phrase. Find the letters, work out the phrase and enter for free (At Serendipities) into the draw to win a hamper. The map can be downloaded from here. There are also 4 additional raffle prizes you can enter for, for £2 an entry. 

We have had large games made, available for all to enjoy (Puck Flick, Present Drop, Candy Cane Hoop, Snowman Ball Toss, and Street Obstacle Course). Pop into Serendipities to pick up the equipment. These will be cleaned after every use. 

Many of the businesses will have specials on during the festive period. Have a look on the map to see where they are and what they have on offer. 

There will be a selection of street performers during the festive period (Thursdays to Sundays). There are no set times or dates to avoid crowds. Instead it will remain a surprise.

There are also 4 additional raffle prizes you can enter for. £2 an entry, available from Serendipities and The Bank Bar!
