The enchanted Christmas forest tucked away in the city centre with hundreds of real trees and winter cocktails on tap

A hidden winter forest is opening in Deansgate, which is set to feature fairy trails, snow projections, and 250 real Christmas trees, alongside a 20ft centrepiece draped head to toe in festive decorations.

The Enchanted Forest, located on the riverside square at Deansgate Square, will open this evening (December 8) and will run for two weeks. The festive display will include food and drink stalls and family activities, like decoration making workshops and lantern parades.

The centrepiece of the forest will undoubtedly be the 20ft Nordmann Fir tree, which will soar above 250 real Christmas trees. Tipis covered in twinkling lights will also be dotted along the site, serving as a perfect backdrop for wintery nights.
