With the festive season firmly upon us, at The Piazza we’re gearing up to make sure that this is the best Christmas ever.
will be open right up until Christmas Eve, where, as well as meeting Santa, little Buddies can enjoy our “Rocking Robin” display – it’s not to be missed! Until next time, I’d like to wish you a very Merry Christmas and all the very best for 2011 from everyone here at The Piazza.

This September, the Piazza worked with The Gazette Newspaper, Kenneth Edwards Hairdressing and Beauty, The Watermill Hotel, Scottish Rockettes Cheerleaders and, of course, Piazza Stores, to put on a fantastic fashion event to showcase the great Autumn and Winter styles available in the Mall, and to raise valuable funds for local charity St Vincent’s Hospice. A makeover competition also saw Johnstone winner Janet McGill receiving a whole new look courtesty of The Piazza, and six months worth of hairdressing from Kenneth Edwards. See the show at
