Marketing Birmingham would like to invite you to sample the delights of Christmas in the city.

Join us on Thursday 4 December 2008 to chase the winter blues away with a lunchtime glass of warming gluwein and a piece of stollen at the largest authentic German Christmas Market in the country.

Then we�ll whisk you off to experience the magical scenery and giant flying snow goose at a matinee performance of The Nutcracker performed by Birmingham Royal Ballet - undoubtedly the best production of The Nutcracker in the UK.

Or you can join us on a journey to the ends of the world and meet the white witch with the timeless Narnia classic The Lion, The Witch and The Wardrobe at Birmingham Repertory Theatre.

Travel expert and television presenter Russell Amerasekera will really spice things up as he hosts you for evening dinner at Asha�s Bollywood restaurant � the only one of its kind in the UK. From cocktails that taste like Bakewell Tart to finely spiced Panchpuran Lobster Curry you�re in for a real treat.

Round off the day off with the ultimate overnight experience at the boutique style nite nite city rooms. The hotel is the only one of its kind in the world and was created to give guests a feeling of coming aboard a luxury yacht, with its cosy rooms based on ship�s cabins.

On Friday 5 December you can spend the morning experiencing the delights of Birmingham�s retail outlets at your leisure, and pick up that elusive last minute Christmas gift. Complimentary Cross Country train tickets included.

Places are limited.

Please RSVP to Emma Ward by Friday 14 November, indicating your choice of matinee performance � The Nutcracker or The Lion, The Witch and The Wardrobe.
