The Snowman™ sculpture trail

Come and spot 12 giant sculptures around the gardens at Anglesey Abbey this winter.

  • Booking not needed
  • Free event (admission applies)

We are excited to host The Snowman™ trail at Anglesey Abbey from 8 November 2025 to 4 January 2026, presented by Wild in Art.

Pick up a trail map and see if you can find all of the festively decorated sculptures creatively exhibited around the gardens. The Snowman™ sculptures have been painted by national and international artists, showcasing designs inspired by the song, The Twelve Days of Christmas.

Inspired by Raymond Briggs’ heart-warming picture book, The Snowman, this timeless classic is all set to come alive in the gardens at Anglesey Abbey. Explore this ultimate festive story at Christmas time with friends and family and look out for some festive Christmas jokes accompanying each of The Snowman™ sculptures.

Suitable for all ages; the trail will be open to visitors until 4 January 2026, except for Christmas Eve and Christmas Day. The trail is free, but normal admission applies. Please check the homepage of our website for up-to-date opening times before visiting.

The Snowman™ trail forms part of our festive programme of events for this year’s Christmas season. To find out more, head back to our ‘upcoming events’ page.

Enjoy a journey through art and adventure with friends and family this winter!
