We had such a fantastic response to last year’s trail, and it’s a great way for the whole family to explore the city’s retail offer, whilst taking part in this family-fun activity.
“It is brilliant to see the retailers really getting behind this campaign too, and I’m looking forward to seeing their penguins as part of their Christmas window displays. These wonderful life size LEGO brick penguins really do bring something special to our city centre. This will be the last year we have them so make sure you don’t miss the opportunity to take part.”
