Winckley Square is to be transformed into a winter wonderland in the run up to Christmas.

Following the Tales of Oz event the Winter Wonderland showcase takes over the whole of the grade-II listed Georgian gardens.

Santa, Mrs Christmas and the cheeky elves will be running amock in the Square for kids to come and enjoy a Christmas showcase.

Activities include visiting Santa in his cosy living room and receiving a gift, storytelling with Mrs Christmas and meeting the elves in their workshop.

EventsLive is putting on the Christmas show on Saturday 16 December and Sunday 17 December.
