On the 4th December, we’re bringing back our Winter Wonderland!
We’re packed to the brim with all things Christmas, so here’s a rundown of everything that you can expect from this years Winter Wonderland!
F.Y.I... we can't wait.
1. Ferris Wheel
Alexa, play 'Round Round' by the Sugababes... because the Ferris Wheel is BACK. IN. BUSINESS.
You can have the best view on campus, for no cost at all.
What’s not to love?!
2. Reindeer
What's cute, fluffy, and has 2 antlers?
You guessed it... our furry friends are making a trip from the North Pole to join us again for a day of cuddles and magic!
As well as providing us with some amazing photo opportunities, you can come down and see for yourself the joy that a Christmassy furry friend can bring!
3. Makers Market
As always, we will have 30+ independent traders for you to browse through at Winter Wonderland!
Need some last-minute festive gifts? Or perhaps just a little treat for yourself?
There really is something for everyone!
4. Fire pit ('smores)
Who doesn't love a sweet treat?
For Winter Wonderland, we're bringing back our fire pit and s'more toasting!
Treat yourself to a chocolatey, marshmallow and biscuit sandwich for only £1... as well as warming yourself up on the fire!
5. Food Vendors
I know my favourite part of Christmas is the food... so what better way to celebrate Winter Wonderland than with our 10/10 food stalls?!
This year, we really do have something for everyone.
From loaded Italian doughnuts, to Greek bites, to our mouth-watering Yorkshire pudding wraps... maybe one of each??
6. Festive Carnival Games
Everyone loves a game around Christmas time, but what games will we be bringing?
We'll have all sorts of interactive games – from Ten Pin Toss, to a giant Splat The Rat, and many more!
Come test your reaction speed, or your aim... who fancies their chances?
7. Craft sessions in The Pillars
Here at the SU, we LOVE a crafternoon. So for Winter Wonderland, we're bringing you a range of crafts right here in the North Side!
Head into the North Side, go straight ahead through the archway, and you will be greeted with some amazing christmas crafts!
Not only great for calming the mind, but also for staying in the Christmas spirit. What's not to love?
8. Shock providing the music!
Who better to spin some Christmassy tunes that our award-winning student radio station themselves?!
That's right, we'll have Shock with us, streaming live from Winter Wonderland, playing all things Mariah Carey and keeping the good vibes and festive spirit going!
They might also have a few giveaways planned across the day... and to get in the mood, check out their documentary of the day from last year!
9. Coffee Hut doing Festive Drinks
On a cold morning, there's nothing I want more than a hot drink to warm me up, and the Coffee Hut are bringing out all the stops.
Their brand new Christmas menu, launching on the 25th of November, will feature...
- Candy Cane Hot Chocolate
- Bailey's Hot Chocolate
- Chocolate Orange Hot Chocolate
- Gingerbread Latte
Couldn't have wished for more this festive season.
10. Rec The Halls
And last but not least... Atmosphere are holding their annual 'Rec The Halls' – a Christmas themed rec night!
Come dance the night away to all your favourite Christmas tunes, and catch the best drink deals on campus!
And there you have it – a day filled with festivities and fun, and only a little bit of reindeer poo! Come down on the 4th December, we'll be here 12-6 with food, stalls and reindeers, and then partying the night away from 9pm in Atmosphere!
We can't wait to see you there!
