Do they need Lightipia though? Personally as nice as it was, I think Towers could do their own trail similar to what National Trust properties do.
And if the Towers were not full of Scarefest stuff they could put some stunning Christmas scenes in them, imagine the main hall with a giant Christmas tree and decorations.
A giant big wheel on the lawns, an ice skating rink, a few stalls for gifts, food and drink, and the usual ride openings.
It doesn’t have to be “mega” but just something interesting to draw people to visit. May be towers aren’t bothered about the theme park side this winter and are focusing more on guests staying in the hotels, but I agree that those who have attended previous years may expect something similar this year. That’s certainly the opinion from readying many questions being posted on Facebook groups asking about Xmas market and lightopia.
