Simpsons Garden Centre in Inverness switches on festive mode with Christmas Shop and Santa's grotto

Inverness-based Simpsons is getting ready for a busy festive season, following celebrating the opening of its Christmas Shop.

The award-winning garden centre, which opened its new canopy entrance this time last year, is looking forward to its first proper festive season utilising the new area.

Customers will find food and live music every weekend throughout December, at the entrance canopy, as well as the return of Santa’s grotto for the first time since 2019 due to the pandemic.

Marketing manager Siobhan MacBean said: “This is the first proper opportunity we’ve had to utilise our new entrance canopy for the festive season, we have lots of festive-themed things for our customers to enjoy including fabulous live music every weekend in December from local musicians from jazz bands to Highland brass group.”
