Fareham Launch Nutcracker Christmas Trail

Residents can pick up a trail sheet from Fareham Library or download it and print it from the Council website.

Children can follow the trail around Fareham's festive town centre to find the Nutcrackers in shop windows. If they get all the letters and unscramble them to complete the secret word, they will be in with the chance of winning prizes such as:

  • £50 of Slug and Lettuce vouchers
  • Cream tea for a family of two adults and two children at Edwards Coffee and Wine Lounge
  • Family swim session at Fareham Leisure Centre
  • Soft Play vouchers for Busy Beavers at Fareham Leisure Centre
  • A chocolate hamper up to the value of £15 from HiIborne’s Sweets

 Executive Leader of Fareham Borough Council, Cllr Seán Woodward, said: “It was fantastic to see so many people in Fareham throughout the day. This event is so important for our community as it not only draws people into the town centre for some low-cost family fun, but it also helps support our local traders. I would like to thank our Leisure and Community Team as well as all the suppliers, community groups and performers involved for making it an event to remember. A special thanks goes to our event sponsors: The Agency UK, M Coghlan funeral directors and Fareham Shopping Centre for making our street entertainers, Christmas tree and Nutcracker Trail possible.

“Now that the Christmas lights are shining, I encourage residents to help support their local businesses by completing their Christmas shopping in Fareham. Remember to get your children involved in the fantastic Nutcracker Trail to win yourself an early Christmas present!”
