Taskers has transformed its Aintree store into a Grinch-inspired Christmas wonderland following a six-figure investment. The family-run business has unveiled elaborate themed scenes, oversized decorations, multiple photo opportunities, and a giant Grinch welcoming visitors outside.
Six-Figure Investment and New Attractions
The transformation represents another six-figure investment from the company, which has become known for its elaborate Christmas displays. The store welcomes thousands of families through its doors each year to experience the festive setups.
Alongside the giant Grinch outside, Taskers will introduce an eight-foot outdoor Christmas tree in its car park for the first time, creating a festive welcome and another photo opportunity for arriving families.
Free Santa Visits and Festive Food
Father Christmas will return to Taskers free of charge every Thursday evening between 5.30pm and 7.30pm from November 12 until December 10, joined by the Grinch.
In the courtyard, 1958 Bistro by The Bus Yard will create a full festive food area, serving Christmas specials, seasonal food, and warming hot drinks. Christmas markets will also form part of the experience, while inside, Taskers' complete Christmas collection will be available to explore.
Director's Comments on the Whoville Takeover
Oliver Tasker, Director of Taskers, said: "Christmas at Taskers is incredibly special to us because we know it has become part of so many families’ traditions. We have generations of customers who come back every year to see what we’ve created, and that makes us want to make each Christmas even more memorable."
Tasker added: "This year we’ve completely transformed the store with our Whoville takeover. From the giant Grinch outside to the oversized decorations and all of the detail within the different scenes, there is so much for families to discover and plenty of opportunities to stop, take photographs and make memories together."
He continued: "We’ve once again made a significant six-figure investment into Christmas because we want visiting Taskers to feel like an experience in itself. You don’t have to spend anything to come and enjoy the displays, and Santa will also be joining us completely free of charge every Thursday evening in the run-up to Christmas."
Tasker concluded: "With The Bus Yard bringing festive food and drinks outside, our Christmas markets, the new outdoor tree and everything happening inside the store, we really want people to be able to come along and make an occasion of it. We can’t wait to welcome everyone into Whoville and see their reaction to what we’ve created this year."
