Stevenage shoppers will be able to step inside a giant snow globe at the town’s Westgate arcade.

The inflatable novelty attraction, pictured above, is 12ft high and 13ft wide, and can cater for six people at a time.

For £1.50 a person for a three-minute session at peak periods you’ll be able to play with snow and inflatable props, take your own photographs or buy one from the professional photographer who will be on hand.

Centre manager Tina Bennett said: “I am really excited about the arrival of the snow globe. We have never had anything like this in Westgate before and I am sure our customers young and old will have lots of fun playing in the snow and taking home a treasured keepsake.”

It will only be in the shopping centre for one week, from Monday, November 16, to Sunday, November 22.

Opening hours will be 1pm to 5pm from Monday to Friday, 10am to 5.30pm on the Saturday and 11am to 4pm on the Sunday.
