BENTS Garden and Home has announced its line-up of 'festive fun' ahead of Christmas.

The popular north west garden centre has been a staple of Christmas for many families in Warrington for a number of years.

Its festive line-up announcement follows the launch of Bents' Christmas experience, which took place in October.

The garden centre is a beloved part of many Warrington families' Christmas traditions, and 2022 looks set to be no different.

Bents Garden and Home's full Christmas event line-up 2022 is as follows:

Tiny tots Christmas parties

Father Christmas’ chief elf is hosting a number of tiny tot parties especially planned for little ones aged between one and four. 

Featuring craft activities, music, dancing, stories and songs, Bents’ Christmas elf will make this a special festive occasion for all the little ones in attendance. 

The fun will take place on Tuesdays on December 6, 13 and 20, starting at 9.30am. 

Festive tea with Father Christmas

Once again Father Christmas has pencilled some extra time in his diary and will be at Bents every Thursday and Friday evening to enjoy a festive experience with his friends. 

Children aged four years old and above can join in the fun with a festive meal, singing and story-telling, party games and a special gift for each child.

These events will take place in the Fresh Approach Restaurant’s family area from 4.30pm to 6.30pm starting on Friday, December 2.

The final date to donate a gift is Sunday, December 18.
