Special Christmas Event
This winter, W5 is bringing back the magic of Christmas. Take a walk through the storybook world of Snowtown and use your imagination to uncover the closely guarded secret of what Snowmen do when you´re asleep. This enchanting exhibition features dozens of life size snowmen, thousands of Christmas lights, seasonal scents and music, weekend visits by Father Christmas and, depending on the weather forecast, there could even be the odd flurry of snow! All brought together in what will be a truly unforgettable experience for all the family.
