Throughout the Summer Frenchgate has been offering customers music, workshops and treasure hunts to mark 150 years of Alice in Wonderland.

Frenchgate’s ‘Enchanting Wonderland’ will also celebrate the special anniversary of the Lewis Carroll classic on August 13 and 14, running ‘Queen of Hearts’ candy bag workshops.

In addition a range of Frenchgate’s 120 top brand shops will have ‘Buy Me’–style special offers available for customers on the look-out for a bargain.
