Jack and the Beanstalk

This year's fabulous panto will be performed at Regent Theatre between 15 Dec and 7 Jan (Regent Theatre).

Jonathan Wilkes returns to Stoke-on-Trent this year with the spectacular family panto, Jack and the Beanstalk.

Expect laughs, music, special effects, magic beans and bundles of audience participation in this giant of a pantomime!

Santa Train

Apedale Valley Light Railway's Santa Train returns to Chesterton on 23 December.

During the 15-minute round trip, Santa will meet the train and come back to the Heritage Centre. Then, the children can meet Santa in his grotto.

The events are always very popular and the railway recommends that you book ahead.

Christmas Eve Afternoon Tea

World of Wedgwood will host a festive afternoon tea on Christmas Eve (Nub News).

Prepare to be welcomed with bubbles or a festive cocktail in the Wedgwood Tea Room before being seated for a festive afternoon tea like no other.

You'll be joined by a live jazz singer who will perform classic Christmas songs to create the most perfect setting for your Christmas Eve celebration.

Each ticket includes a large afternoon tea with a festive twist, a glass of champagne and live entertainment.
