Christmas in Stoke-on-Trent
Christmas is a wonderful time of the year and Stoke-on-Trent is a great pace to celebrate the festive season! In fact we invite you to put on your Christmas jumpers and gallop like red-nosed reindeer to join this year’s party! And here are just some of the reasons why…
Come and kick off the festive season with our selection of Christmas Lights Switch-On events. Choose from the switch-on events at the Trentham Estate, Emma Bridgewater, Middleport Pottery or one of the town centre events!
As the home of The Potteries we are the perfect destination for great gift shopping – our fabulous big brand factory shops and outlets not only stock incredible ranges of ceramics but also stock great ranges of glass, crystal, art, and homeware too. intu Potteries in the City Centre provides the perfect one-stop-shop for Christmas shopping where you can spend a whole day swanning around the 94 stores and restaurants. The Trentham Estate provides the perfect recipe for a successful Christmas Shopping trip: mix an atmospheric Shopping Village, 65 timber lodge shops, 19 delicious cafes, one massively impressive Trentham Garden Centre, add a huge sprinkling of beautiful twinkling Christmas lights and you’ll leave better prepared for Christmas than the big man himself!
Talking of the big man, you won’t want to miss meeting the REAL Father Christmas at Middleport Pottery when he pays a visit to the Victorian factory from 18 to 23 December.
Our brilliant theatres have some great festive shows and performances to get you in the Christmas mood including the Regent Theatre’s hilarious pantomime Robin Hood and the New Vic’s seasonal adaptation of The Wind in the Willows.
Other highlights not to be missed include the World of Wedgwood’s Magical Wedgwood Christmas, bringing with it a range of creative activities with a Christmas twist - as well as a new Christmas Children’s Museum Trail to explore; a Victorian Christmas Fun Day at Gladstone Pottery Museum, featuring festive stories from characters from Dickens’ Christmas Carol; and special Christmas Shoppers’ Tours & Breakfast events at Emma Bridgewater.
Take a look at our events list below to see a full list of what’s on throughout the festive period and view our Top ways to celebrate Christmas in Stoke-on-Trent for the ultimate Christmas inspiration!
