Party at Pyramids! Shopping centre is turning 30

Birkenhead! It’s time to bring out the cake, balloons and party poppers, as Pyramids is marking its 30th year in business in a few days’ time.

The shopping centre is inviting the town to celebrate its pearl anniversary at a birthday bonanza to be held in the unit next toCard Factory on Wednesday 21 August from 11am until 3pm.

Young visitors will also be able to enter a competition to draw a picture of the ultimate birthday cake which will be displayed in the unit, with one design to scoop a brilliant bundle of goodies from The Entertainer.

And, it’s not a celebration without some good food, so guests can also expect tasty treats from the likes of Muffin Break, Greggs, Liverpool FC and The Perfume Shop.

Allan Beaumont, operations manager at Pyramids Shopping Centre, said: “We are really excited for this very special occasion where we will be looking back on 30 brilliant years. The unforgettable moments began from day one, when boxing legend Frank Bruno officially opened the centre.

“Since then we’ve welcomed other famous faces including TV actress, Dame Patricia Routledge who visited last year for the Wilfred Owen commemoration and who can forget the Duke and Duchess of Sussex’s visit to Number 7 earlier this year?” Allan continued.

“We’ll be showcasing images from the many great events we’ve hosted, so it’s set to be a nostalgia-filled experience for all. Pyramids is very fortunate to have a lot of wonderful, loyal customers who have been with us since the start and still shop with and us now but come along with their own families and grandchildren.”

He concluded: “This birthday celebration is our way of saying ‘thank you’ to Birkenhead for all the support over the last three decades, not forgetting our incredible retailers which have made it possible for Pyramids to reach this fantastic milestone.
