Press Release Summary: The management team at Peak Village have confirmed an
exciting schedule of events for the festive months of November and December.

Press Release Body: The events programme - which is kick-started on November 1 with
a visit from Pogo the Clown, his friends Punch and Judy and the Space Hoppers -
promises to add real value and fun to the experience of visitors of all ages.

The weekends in the run up to Christmas will see the following events at Peak
Village in Rowsley, near Matlock:
15 November - The official countdown to Christmas -Santa switches on the festive
lights at 4.30pm.
22 and 23 November - Arts and Crafts Fair with a festive theme
29 and 30 November - The opening of Santa's Grotto at The Toys of Yesteryear
(The grotto will be open every weekend thereafter, throughout December).

On 7 December there will be an amazing Birds of Prey Display, followed up by a
relaxing Natural Health and Wellbeing Fayre on 13 and 14 December. By popular
demand, Peak Village sees the return of its unmissable ice skating rink on 20 and 21
December; a proportion of the proceeds of this event will benefit Rowsley C of E
school.

Martin Langsdale, one of the managing partners of Peak Village, said: "We are
delighted with the events planned for Peak Village during the festive season. We
have tried to come up with a varied programme that will be interesting and exciting
for all ages. Although some of the events are new, some - like the ice rink - have
been to Peak Village before and we have included them again because of the positive
feedback we had from the shoppers in the past."

With the exception to the ice skating rink and Santa's Grotto, there is no entry
charge for any of these events or entertainment. Martin adds: "We appreciate that
the run up to Christmas is an expensive time and therefore we are offering these fun
and interesting additions mostly free of charge. We will soon be planning our events
for 2009 and we hope to be able to include events for most weekends and we are also
looking at the events to cater for the weekday shoppers."

Peak Village is home to nearly 20 retailers including national names like Cotton
Traders, Leading Labels, Ponden Mill, The Cook Shop and Mountain Warehouse. The
outlet shopping centre attracts 750,000 visitors a year and offers visitors the
opportunity to combine shopping with other local attractions.
