PROPYARD’S HAVING A WHEELIE GOOD TIME THIS CHRISTMAS
Fairytale of Feeder Road: Propyard presents a brand new 16 metre ferris wheel, a Romeo + Juliet themed Christmas Party and the FIFA World Cup Final on the biggest screen in Bristol As we step into the Christmas countdown, Propyard has added a 55ft ferris wheel to its Winterland extravaganza. Launching on Wednesday 14 and set to stay until early January, families and friends can expect even more winter magic at St. Philips as the venue’s outdoor space is transformed into a haven of festive-fun.

From Wednesday 14, the Winterland ice rink and ice bumper cars will be open daily, with those keen to ride the ferris wheel and score themselves the best views of the experience able to purchase tokens to do so from £3.50 per person. Winterland’s star attraction Bjorn the Polar Bear will also be on hand to meet and greet visitors with regular appearances in the run up to New Year. If this wasn’t enough to get residents heading straight for Feeder Road, there will also be two additional rides for the young ones alongside the outdoor ferris wheel. The children’s rides will be under cover and blankets will be available to keep riders feeling cosy as they get their thrills.
Hot chocolates, hot toddies and other festive treats will be on offer, which will be the ultimate winter warmer whilst enjoying this arctic journey. The December fun doesn’t stop there. Final tickets are on sale for a Romeo + Juliet spectacle on Friday 16, which will bring an evening of Montague and Capulet grandeur to Propyard. Inspired by the richness and extravagance of Baz Luhrmann’s Romeo + Juliet, a Christmas party like no other invites Montegues, Capulets and Bristolians alike to indulge in an authentic Italian feast before being whisked away for an unforgettable evening of dancing. It may not be coming home for England, but it’s not over quite yet. The biggest screen in Bristol is still up at Propyard and tickets are available over at the venue’s website to soak up the atmosphere of the World Cup Final on Sunday 18 December. From 2pm until 6pm, football fans from all over can get their head in the game one last time… until the Women’s season kicks off in 2023. Access to Winterland is free, with bookable tickets to the ice rink and ice bumper cars available to purchase on the Propyard website. Prices start from £8-12.50.
