Family and friends can experience the excitement and joy of a white Christmas for the first time in Malta inside Bay Street’s Giant Snow Globe, which was inaugurated there last weekend.

This life size, inflatable snow globe has proved to be a major attraction wherever it has been set up abroad, enabling a group of up to eight people to be immersed in a festive Christmas wonderland.

All those entering the snow globe will be given a complimentary photo of their memorable experience.

A spokesman for Bay Street said: “This is yet another reason for patrons of all ages to visit Bay Street for their Christmas shopping. The Giant Snow Globe, which was a major attraction at similar locations across the UK, is open every day from now until 8 January, so do come along with your kids for this white Christmas experience.”

Those who enter the snow globe are automatically eligible to enter the Snow Globe and Ice Watch competition, in association with Bling by Super Gold and 89.7 Bay Radio, with an Ice Watch being given away every week until 8 January.

All they need to do, upon visiting the snow globe, is to give your consent for your photo inside the snow globe to be uploaded on the Bay Street Facebook page, www.facebook.com/baystreetmalta. The person with the most Likes will be eligible to win the Ice Watch. 89.7 Bay will then contact them and ask them a skill question, which if answered correctly secures them the Ice Watch.

They will then be invited to Bay Street to be presented with their prize.
