The Trentham blog is written to keep you up-to-date with all things Trentham.
Happy new year everyone! The cold weather is definitely here! But what’s better than wrapping up warm in those winter woollies and enjoying a nice stroll around our woodland and lakeside walk.
John Lewis has done it. M&S and Sainsbury’s do it. And, of course, Coca Cola has been doing it for years. Now, The Trentham Estate has launched its own Christmas advert, focusing on the famous Trentham fairies which have cast enough of a spell in recent years to transform this top attraction into a magical kingdom…and who now spring to life in a new festive commercial.
The festive season is now upon us and this can be seen on the Shopping Village by the vast expanse of lights and the installation of the 24ft high Norway Spruce Christmas tree taking centre stage. The team install one and a half miles of lights to ensure Trentham looks its best for Santa's arrival.
We are waking up to more foggy and frosty November mornings with stunning views. The annual meadows still have some colour and the flowers look magical when the frost hits them!
Festive fun at award-winning Trentham Gardens always offers a Christmas mix of sparkling wintry gardens, frosty fairies and seasonal shopping – but this year, how about Yeti snowballing or have-a-go Festive Frisbee?
It’s firework and bonfire time again, but what can we expect at Trentham Garden’s events this year? Well, we’re heading “out of this world”, taking our theme from the 50th anniversary of the historic moon landing.
Autumn has definitely arrived at Trentham, evident by the sweet-smelling decaying leaves of the Katsura tree (Cercidiphyllum japonicum) located by the old swimming pool steps on the west side of the lakeside walks.

It’s almost time to decide where you will be enjoying a stunning firework display with your family and friends.
