The Snowman™ at Sheffield Park and Garden this Christmas

The Snowman™ is coming to Sheffield Park and Garden for the first time this Christmas

Families are invited on a festive walk, re-living the magic of Raymond Briggs’ heart-warming picture book. Look out for twelve decorated sculptures of The Snowman™, along a winding wintry path, past beautiful lakes and trees.
