At the centre of the event will be the beautiful Oracle Tree, a rockerfella-esque Christmas tree bristling with unique baubles.

Guests with The Oracle PLUS app are encouraged to pick from the tree and open their bauble to see whether they’ve won one of hundreds of prizes, including gift cards, perfume, cosmetics and much more.

The baubles will also contain ‘golden tickets’, entering guests into the ultimate Bauble Bingo.

Andy Briggs, General Manager at The Oracle, said: “At The Oracle, we strive to provide a space for friends and family to shop, relax, have fun and connect with each other.

"With Christmas just around the corner, we want to spread some festive cheer and bring people together as we prepare for the most wonderful time of the year.”

From December 12, The Oracle will be open from 9am – 9pm every day apart from Sunday where the centre will be open from 11am – 5pm allowing time for those busy, last-minute shoppers.
