With the christmas countdown in full swing, we are bringing you a list of what’s going on in Sefton Park, a fortnight away before the 25th of December.
This festive period, for the first time, the Palm House in Sefton Park will be hosting ‘The Birdcage Stage.’
From the 11th-21st a giant, golden birdcage will be in the beautiful Palm House and a plethora of events will be taking place.
The Birdcage Stage is a versatile performance stage whose collective mission is: “To create high quality, magical experiences that bring warm smiles and joy to audiences of all ages.”
They’re dedicated to sharing creativity with communities through performances, workshops and events.
