Dreams of a white Christmas have become a reality in Salisbury.

As part of the city's festive celebrations this year Salisbury BID have got a snow machine.

It's already popped over the weekend much to the delight of shoppers young and old!

It'll continue to ditch the white stuff at various locations across the city including in The Maltings, The Old George Mall, Guildhall Square and Salisbury Cathedral.

Andy Milton, Snow Ranger at Salisbury BID said,

“We wanted to bring some festive cheer to the city this Christmas and what better way than by making it snow! We hope it will bring a smile to the faces of the shoppers in Salisbury.”

These snow machines have been used on multiple TV and film sets to create magical, realistic, snow scenes. Some of the projects that feature the snow include Miley Cyrus' ‘Adore You’ music video and festive adverts for McDonald’s, Waitrose, M&S and Cadbury’s.

The machine uses a snow fluid which is bio-degradable, non-toxic, non-staining and dermatologically tested so it is safe for people, the planet, pets and wildlife.

The snowmachine will pop up in pedestrianised areas of the city so children and adults alike can enjoy the magic of snow at Christmas.

The snow machine weather forecast is dependent on the actual weather forecast and is subject to change at any moment in line with the weather conditions.
