Factory Holidays

Some factories are unable to offer tours during the annual ‘Potters’ shutdown for staff holidays.

Most factory shops remain open but we advise you to check before you travel. The Visitor Centres are open throughout the year except Christmas week and New Year’s Day. The ‘Potters’ shutdown usually takes place:

• A week at Easter starting with Good Friday.
• The last week of June and first week of July.
• The last week of August.
• During Christmas and New Year.

‘Potters’ holiday dates are subject to movement and therefore we advise you to contact the attraction before travelling to check whether tours are available.
