In association with M&D events, this Christmas<br />
spectacular will help the town get into the festive<br />
mood, running daily apart from Christmas Day,<br />
until Sunday 30th <strong>December</strong>!<br />
This year’s plans will see the return of the outdoor<br />
ice rink, a Big Wheel and an improved continental<br />
Christmas market, as the town looks to attract<br />
visitors and shoppers from further afi eld.<br />
Paisley First is also bringing back its successful<br />
free festive Nutcracker Trail with 15 Nutcracker<br />
Kings spread throughout the town until Sunday<br />
30th <strong>December</strong>.<br />
M&D Events is currently submitting the necessary<br />
consent applications to Renfrewshire Council.<br />
Paisley First Chairman, Graeme McGowan, said:<br />
“These will be two great events to showcase<br />
everything that Paisley has to offer during the<br />
festive season.<br />
“We will also be running our Christmas Golden<br />
Ticket competition where visitors shopping and<br />
socialising in the town centre will have four<br />
chances to win £500 of town centre gift vouchers.<br />
And when it comes to festive shopping we have a<br />
lot of fantastic independent retailers as well as<br />
national chains throughout the town centre.<br />
“After hitting the shops and enjoying the Christmas<br />
entertainment, visitors can take advantage of our<br />
many cafes, restaurants and bars.<br />
“Following the success of Jurassic Bricks in the<br />
summer, the return of our Christmas events will<br />
help cement the town’s reputation as a visitor<br />
destination.”<br />
M&D’s Events Director, Douglas Taylor, said:<br />
“WinterFest was a great success in Paisley last<br />
year and those who enjoyed the festivities made it<br />
clear that there was an appetite for it to return.<br />
“We are working with Paisley First to ensure<br />
this event will be a great attraction for the local<br />
community, who will be eligible for discounted<br />
rates, as well as visitors from further afi eld.”<br />
