The McArthurGlen Designer Outlet has been transformed into a fun destination with visitors able to enjoy a grassed area with a pop up bar, BBQ grill shack, children’s games including water walkers and a festival themed seating area.

Saturdays have been showcasing ‘Cheshire Oaks Introduces’ running until September 3 with a series of live music sessions from local and regional acts.

With the Olympics making the news a Cheshire Oaks sports day in association with Nike saw a weekend of free sports classes and events designed to get kids moving.

The ‘Summer Camp’ taking place every Wednesday between 11am and 4pm has seen a fun-filled programme of craft, games and music.

The feature continues with a bunting workshop on Wednesday August 31.

On top of all of this shoppers have been able to make the most of promotions available across the centre which claims to offer a quarter of a million square feet of retail space and over 60 premium, high street and designer brands.
