The Square and The Atrium to collaborate on Easter in Wonderland
The Square and The Atrium shopping centres, located in the heart of Camberley town centre, have announced a plan to collaborate on a free event for the Easter holidays.
Guests to the shopping centres are invited to fall down a rabbit hole of adventure, with a free Alice In Wonderland themed trail set to arrive on Saturday 5th April until Friday 18th April for the school holidays. To complete ‘Alice’s Camberley Adventure’, guests will be invited to collect a whimsical trail guide from the Square’s Customer Service Desk or The Atrium’s Information Point to embark on a journey across both shopping centres. Guests can start at either centre and discover the life-size , models of famous characters such as the White Rabbit, Mad Hatter, Cheshire Cat and Alice herself along the way – to name a few!
Once shoppers have visited all locations and retrieved the mystery letters, they will be able to unscramble them to make a key word as the final puzzle.
Each completed trail form can be dropped off at the Customer Service Desk in either centre to be entered to win a fantastic prize for the ultimate day out in Camberley. The bundle includes a £50 voucher to Vue cinema at The Atrium, a meal for four at Chiquitos, a £50 Primark voucher to spend at The Square and a family ticket to VR World – a newly opened interactive experience for mind-blowing activities on Obelisk Way. To make it really authentic Waterstone’s have thrown in Lewis Carroll’s Alice Through The Looking Glass and an Alice in Wonderland story too!To mark the start of The Square and The Atrium’s ‘Alice’s Camberley Adventure’, Alice and The Mad Hatter will be greeting visitors on Saturdy 5th April between 11am & 4pm at The Atrium. They’ll be there to help visitors with their trail quest and stop for a photo too. The event is a collaboration between both shopping centres with Centre Manager Gavin Vidler of The Square and Ray Walker of The Atrium uniting forces to provide free activities for local families, at a time when the cost of living is challenging for many.
Gavin Vidler, Centre Manager for The Square Camberley, commented “We are very much looking forward to teaming up with The Atrium for an Easter to remember here in Camberley. We are exceptionally proud to work in this fantastic town and welcome our community to enjoy all that there is on offer, from the huge range of shops, to delicious food outlets and of course, our wonderful free events. Working together on the event is a great way to showcase this, and of course keeps the little ones busy throughout the school holidays! We look forward to welcoming you.”
Ray Walker, Centre Manager for The Atrium, commented "We’re thrilled to team up with The Square to bring Alice’s Camberley Adventure to life this Easter! It’s a fantastic way to make a visit to Camberley even more exciting for families and fans of Lewis Carroll’s classic tales. After exploring this free event, there’s so much more to enjoy—great shopping, entertainment, and plenty of fun for all ages. We can’t wait to welcome you from April 5th to 18th—come and join the adventure!"
