10th – 23rd December 2021

Christmas Wonderland, Perth’s brand-new Christmas-themed lighting trail experience, which has been designed and produced by Scottish based events company, 21CC Group Ltd., has today announced their partnership with PKAVS, a dynamic local charity that works tirelessly throughout Perth and Kinross to improve wellbeing, connect communities, and help people to realise their potential.

The charity partnership will invite the community of Perth to get festive and give back this Christmas, by making either a monetary donation – which will be gifted directly to the charity, who are helping individuals to overcome personal barriers and ensure they have every chance to achieve their goals in life - or donating a family ticket to PKAVS, upon ticket check out.

21CC Group Ltd. will also be gifting PKAVS with 100 tickets to the exclusive Christmas Wonderland VIP Launch night as well as supplying a 10% discount code to the charity which will be available for redemption by all PKAVS charity members and associates.

Paul Graham, PKAVS Chief Executive, PKAVS comments: "We are delighted that the Christmas Wonderland at Perth Riverside has chosen PKAVS as the event's Charity Partner. Since the pandemic, our services have been in more demand than ever. By supporting PKAVS to raise both additional funds and awareness of the vital services we offer, this partnership will allow us to reach even more people in Perth & Kinross with that bit of extra help they need."

From 10th to 23rd December, guests are invited to experience Norie Miller Walk at Perth Riverside as never seen before. Festive lighting, enchanting effects and a sparkling atmosphere will transform a winding pathway overlooking the picturesque PerthRiverside creating some unmissable memories for adults and children alike. Santa himself will be there, to welcome and greet everyone who comes.

Geoff Crow, Managing Director of 21CC Group says: “This has been a really hard year for so many reasons and as a business owner operating in the events sector, I can say that it has most definitely been one of our most challenging for obvious reasons. Christmas is such a special time and an opportunity to take stock and reflect. We are really looking forward to bringing this special event to Perth, and hope that this charity partnership will go a long way to supporting those who need it most across the community. Come to Perth and experience the magic of Christmas.”

Full price tickets start from £10 for adults and £7 for children under 16 on opening night (10th Dec). Children under 3 can also attend for free. Family ticket bundles allow access for 2 adults and 2 children and are available from £30. The walk will take approximately one hour and tickets will have allocated time slots for guests to arrive. First entry is at 4 pm and last entry is at 7:30 pm. Tickets can be booked online in advance to save disappointment.
