Get ready to follow the trail of some very cheeky snowmen! Southampton's free Snow Windows Trail is back for its third year, bringing a brand-new collection of handcrafted festive window displays to the city centre.
This year's theme is snowmen, with 22 bespoke designs to discover across two new walking routes: the Hat Route and the Carrot Route.
Created once again by talented artist Tom Baker from Snow Windows, each display has been specially handcrafted for you to discover. Follow the free trail map and see what our snowmen get up to along the way.
There's also two festive puzzles to solve! Look out for a letter in the poster found at each stop and see if you can unscramble them to reveal the secret word. Once solved, head to the route's end location where children will receive a free prize, and adults can enter our winter prize draw.
Pick up your free map and explore over 20 stops on Southampton’s Snow Windows Trail!
Hop on any bus that serves the city centre to take part in this trail. Single fares are capped at just £2.80 and up to 2 kids under 5 travel for free with a paying adult.
