As you travel around the museum, meet merry costumed folk and discover how they're getting ready for the festive season, from the 1820s to the 1950s. Visit Pockerley Old Hall to discover how Christmas was celebrated over 200 years ago in Georgian times and admire the festive greenery and historical food displays.

Experience a traditional miners' Christmas in the 1900s Pit Village and take a stroll down the Edwardian cobbled street to see the homes and shopfronts beautifully decorated for the season. This award-winning museum offers a truly authentic glimpse into Christmases of yesteryear, where roaring coal fires, traditional decorations and the aroma of freshly baked treats transport you to a simpler time

As darkness falls, the magnificent Alnwick Gardens are transformed into a spectacular display of colour and light. Soak up a range of vibrant colours and sounds along with festive snacks and winter warmers from local vendors. With a dazzling trail of projections and illuminations around the gardens to explore, including life-sized Nutcrackers, gingerbread men and baubles, this is an evening of pure festive magic.

This is the perfect way to embrace the Christmas spirit, walking through beautifully lit gardens as seasonal music fills the air. Wrap up warmly and prepare to be dazzled
