Cabot Circus Christmas Lights

Cabot Circus is one of the developments in the Hammerson portfolio which opened in 2008. The centre is the main shopping district in Bristol’s city centre, offering a wide variety of shops and dining options.

Challenge

Cabot Circus approached We Are Placemaking to produce their annual Lights Switch On event – this year they wanted a fun and exciting alternative to the traditional Christmas theme, which the team would curate and produce.

This was a new venue for the Placemaking team and lots of considerations needed to be made during the planning stages, including crowd management, weight loadings, access and much more.
