ABOUT

A partnership between Harrods and children's author, artist and illustrator Oliver Jeffers, 'The Wonder of Stories' is an immersive experience bringing to life the characters, stories and worlds of Oliver Jeffers inside the iconic Harrods store.

In a year in which the usual traditions of Christmas were impacted by ongoing pandemic related restrictions, Harrods wanted to deliver the same festive magic the brand is famous for, whilst also democratising the experience for families unable to visit in person.

A departure from the traditional Christmas Grotto, a physical walkthrough experience was developed in collaboration with the Harrods & Oliver Jeffers creative teams, crafting a unique, interactive journey through some of Jeffers most beloved stories.

For those unable to visit the Knightsbridge store, a complementary 'at home' experience allowed families to take part in online art classes with Oliver and could also gift a limited edition storytelling hamper.
