The Mall understands busy crowds and loud noises can be overwhelming and daunting for some guests and therefore we run a quiet hour from 9am until 10am, Monday to Saturday.
We also hold one quiet hour for children during every family event we run, for details please see our News & Events page for upcoming events.
The Entertainer also run a quiet hour by switching off music and loud demo products in store for the first hour of opening every Saturday.
