Nov 26 2009 by Marjorie Kerr, West Lothian Courier

TWELVE special days of Christmas are set to take place in Livingston from today (Thursday).

Shoppers can look forward to festive treats as The Centre launches their Christmas Spectacular.

Each of the 12 days (November 26 to December 7) will see various activities arrive on The Avenue at The Centre between 5 and 6pm to get shoppers in the mood for Christmas.

There will be everything from fun street theatre courtesy of a Nervous Forest, Snow Queen and Three Dim Kings, angelic sounds from carol singers and music from a splendid brass quintet providing a rich brass sound synonymous with the festive season.

Shoppers young and old can also look forward to a special visit from The Elvis Cleaning Company singing the King’s best Christmas hits and even a special appearance from Santa Claus for four days only (November 28 and 29 and December 5 and 6)

And fashionistas can get advice from The Centre’s stylist Kirstie Armsworth at special styling clinics (November 26 and 27 from 2pm to 6pm), to provide shoppers with the top hints and tips to bag the best party outfits.

Jennifer Bruce, marketing manager at The Centre said: “I am delighted to bring the Christmas Spectacular event to The Centre.

“The attractions are sure to create a fantastic Christmas atmosphere that will be enjoyed by people of all ages.”
