Bents Garden and Home is set to unveil this year’s Christmas experience in a matter of days. The Warrington centre usually goes all out for the festive season, transforming inside into a winter wonderland, complete with dozens of amazing trees and thousands of decorations and present ideas.

The team said it has been counting down the days to their official opening and on Wednesday, October 8 at they will be joined by the Mayor of Warrington, Cllr Mo Hussain, to reveal all to the public.

Once again, Bents’ in-house team of joiners and visual merchandisers has worked their magic to create 12 incredible themes, all of which will be revealed at the opening event.

Following the traditional Christmas countdown, managing director Matthew Bent, will cut the ribbon and officially announce the Christmas 2025 opening.

Matthew Bent told the ECHO: “It may still be October, but once Christmas at Bents is unveiled, the festive season can officially begin.

“This year’s opening event will be full of entertainment, and we’re looking forward to customers being able to see and experience our magical wonderland, which has once again been delivered by our incredible team of colleagues.”
