About This Event

Fenwick's Christmas window has been a Newcastle tradition for decades, drawing families to Northumberland Street to see the store's animated festive display. The 2026 window tells the story of The Gruffalo's Child by Julia Donaldson and Axel Scheffler, with a festive finale and a Royal Northern Sinfonia soundtrack (Grieg's In the Hall of the Mountain King). It was revealed online on 1 November and is open to view from 2 November. Viewing is free, and the window stays on display until early January 2027.
