EALING Broadway begins its Christmas celebrations with the opening of its interactive ice cave and Santa’s grotto this Saturday (18).
For the second year running, shoppers can experience the ice cave, which this year will be adorned with a gingerbread replica of Ealing.
Families will get the chance to visit Santa in the ice cave and gospel choir Kidz Alive will also be performing a medley of festive favourites.
Santa will be in the ice cave every Saturday and Sunday from 11am-5pm until December 23, and choirs and carol singers will entertain shoppers in the lead-up to the big day. The ice caves will be open every day.
