'Let it snow, let it snow, let it snow' at Quakers Friars Square, Cabot Circus

As part of this year's Christmas Adventures light trail, 'Let it snow, let it snow, let it snow', has been projected at Quakers Friars Square, Cabot Circus. Scroll down for some fun facts about the song and for our special #MerryBristmas fact to get you in a festive mood!

Location

All of these illuminations can be found around Cabot Circus, a modern shopping centre based in the heart of Bristol Shopping Quarter. 

Cabot Circus is the perfect destination for Christmas shopping with everything from department stores to independent shops, indoor shopping malls and arcades to outside shopping streets and everything in between. 

In Quakers Friars where you'll find this illumination, make sure you pop into nearby Harvey Nichols for a festive shopping experience. Treat yourself and book a festive makeover or skincare consultation this December and they’ll provide a complimentary glass of fizz. Warm up with a delicious meal or a glass of something at Klosterhaus, also located in Quakers Friars.

Find out what is on all over the festive period in Bristol Shopping Quarter.

Song fact

The ‘Let it snow’ lyric is from the song of the same name, famously sung by Frank Sinatra and then Dean Martin, among many others (including Boyz II Men with a somewhat dubious rendition!). It’s become a classic Christmas hit (not the Boyz II Men version) that’s synonymous with the season even though it features no festive references, other than snow. The song was used in the movie Die Hard which, on the other hand, is filled with festive references and definitely is a Christmas movie (don’t @ us) using American crooner Vaughn Monroe's original version.
