St Stephens Shopping Centre, Hull

The Brief

One of Hull’s most popular shopping destinations, St Stephen’s is home to a host of well-known high-street stores and restaurants and attracts more than 10 million visitors each year. In 2025, Field and Lawn were pleased to help St Stephen’s design a bespoke commercial festive lighting installation that would add a touch of Christmas magic to their visitors’ shopping experience.

The Solution

The scheme included:

38 swags of light up stars
11 animated warm white LED lit stars on entrances and exits
200m of icicle lighting across internal balustrades
Suspended hot air balloon 3D feature
7m freestanding star in entrance of shopping centre

This scheme took inspiration from a previous Oxford Street display, and our team installed the necessary infrastructure required to reduce the triple-height atrium and create an overhead sea of lights. Installation included the use of 750m of catenary wire, 75 eye bolts and a crew of 4 in-house technicians working overnight for 2 weeks under strict health and safety practices.

After a companywide competitive tender, we welcomed Field & Lawn to St Stephens for the first time in 2025. While we had helped to spec the scheme back in the summer the finished article really was spectacular! Coupled with a positive and professional installation/take-down service, F&L really delivered exactly as promised.
