Get your K-Pop look

Festival hair isn’t just for festivals.

Stop by our K-Pop Braiding Station for colourful braids finished with extensions, clips, beads and accessories – completely FREE!

Make something cool

Feeling creative? Head to our Arts & Crafts Station and make something to take home, including football keyrings, bookworm bookmarks, pencil danglers and school sticker scenes.

No boring school prep here.

Snap. Tag. WIN.

Find our Selfie Locker Zone, grab your friends (or your family), take a photo and make it your own. Or snap a photo anywhere at our Back to Cool event!

Share it on social media and tag @thegladesbromley for your chance to win a £100 ZARA Gift Card.

One photo. One tag. Easy.

Sweet break?

We’ve got that covered too.

Visit our Back to Cool Tuck Shop for sweet treats and giveaways while you’re here.

Shopping for school? You might as well WIN.

If you’re coming to The Glades with your parents to sort out the new-school-year shopping, there’s another reason to come along.

Spend £50 or more on shopping or services at The Glades and you could be in with a chance of winning one of 15 amazing prizes.

Sorry teens, you’ll need an adult for this one!
Shop & Win registration is 18+, so ask your parent or another adult you’re shopping with to bring the receipt(s) to our Shop & Win station and register.

We’re talking iPads, Apple tech and gift cards from some of your favourite brands at The Glades.

So yes, the new school year is nearly here…

But summer isn’t over just yet!

Bring your friends, bring the family and come hang out with us for five days of Back to Cool at The Glades.

27th–31st August | 11am–4pm | Central Atrium

See you there!
