Mog, the nation’s favourite cat (Hold on, what about ‘Vienna’ in 70’s sitcom Rising Damp?! – Ed), will be causing merry mayhem in Victoria Centre this Christmas throughout December and up until January 5.

Follow author Judith Kerr’s famous cat as she watches – in confusion – as the Thomas family makes preparations for the purrrrfect Christmas.

You can catch ‘Mog’s Christmas’ on a big TV in the centre’s South Square; join interactive storytelling events, and listen to the story read by the author’s daughter throughout the trail.

You can also pick up a free special trail map and follow the magical Mog’s Christmas trail across the Centre. Discover 11 trail points, each with fun interactive elements, unlocking points of the adorable story which you will be able to hear with the audio recorded by the author’s daughter, especially for this trail.
