Snowdrop parade at Wallington
The sound of music will fill the air as you embark on the snowdrop parade in celebration of one million snowdrops planted at Wallington since 2015.
- Booking not needed
- Free event (admission applies)
Mark this special moment with family and friends by taking part in a short parade around the courtyard and house at Wallington. Accompanied by a musician, and carrying your own snowdrop jingle stick (made by your own fair hands here that day), you can dance, skip, walk or jump around on your way to the east lawn where you can help plant the final snowdrops if you wish, celebrating the end of this long-standing February half-term tradition.
