Seasonal Lancashire
Discover what great seasonal treats are waiting for you on your visit to Lancashire no matter what time of year it may be.
Spring into Lancashire
As the days get longer and the weather warmer it’s time to venture into Lancashire’s countryside. Try your hand at lamb feeding or chick holding at one of our farm attractions, take a walk through a blue bell wood or dust off your bike for a ride along the Leeds-Liverpool Canal.
There’s even the chance to go Egg Rolling in Avenham Park in Preston.
Spring in Lancashire is a prime time for wildlife. Whether you head to one of Lancashire’s nature reserves or take a walk around the grounds of a historic home, keep your eyes peeled.
Pick up tasty seasonal treats at farmers markets or find yourself a good pub or restaurant to try new season lamb, spring veg and wild garlic.
Or why not give yourself a spring-clean with a relaxing spa break in Lancashire. Let someone else do all the hard work whilst you sit back and enjoy being pampered.
Summer in Lancashire
Warm summer evenings are perfect for outdoor theatre and music festivals. Pack a picnic and head to Lancaster for the UKs biggest Walkabout Theatre or have some classic summer fun at one of Lancashire’s vintage and proms festivals.
Lancashire’s coast is the home of great seaside fun, from donkey rides and ice cream to heart-pounding white knuckle rides and family entertainment.
For something different hire a beach hut in St Annes or go on a ‘glamping’ break in Lancashire with the opportunity for all the family to brush up bush-craft skills.
For amazing views take a walk to one of Lancashire’s four Panopticon sculptures or join one of the walking festivals running throughout the summer.
If the summer weather is less than balmy Lancashire’s many museums, historic houses and indoor attractions have family workshops and activities to keep younger visitors happy. And the summer holidays needn’t mean breaking the bank – we’ve got lots of ideas on free things to do and see for all the family.
Autumnal breaks in Lancashire
Stunning Autumn colours, snug open fires, welcoming places to stay, a fantastic choice of regional food and a range of theatre and events to choose from, the autumn is a great time to visit Lancashire for a short break.
With its links to the famous Lancashire Witch Trail of 1612 there can be no better time to climb Pendle Hill but don’t forget to reward your efforts with a warming Lancashire Hot pot and a pint of real ale. Follow the witches driving trail from Pendle Hill to Lancaster, via the beautiful Trough of Bowland and historic market town of Clitheroe to see more of this Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty.
Don’t miss the Tour of Britain as it passes through this area at the beginning of September and check out Lancashire’s weird and wonderful mix of Halloween events. The historic City of Lancaster is the perfect small city getaway with a buzzing live music scene, traditional pubs, literary festival and fascinating historical attractions that includes Lancaster Castle.
On the coast the world’s biggest free light show, The Blackpool Illuminations and firework championships are a sure way to brighten up an autumn evening.
Lancashire’s Winter Wonderland
As thoughts turn to Christmas, Lancashire’s independent shops, market towns and seasonal festivals provide a welcome alternative for Christmas shopping. Get in the spirit of the season at a Victorian festival, cathedral carol concert or a Christmas themed tour of one of Lancashire’s historic houses.
Kids will love Santa Steam Railway experiences and the chance to meet Father Christmas over breakfast. Fill your fridge with seasonal food at Lancashire’s farm shops and markets or treat yourself to a winter feast at one of our award winning restaurants and pubs.
If you are looking for a New Year resolution with a difference you could take a course in butchery, bread making, or cookery and start the new year with a new skill.
And if you’ve received a romantic proposal over the holidays check out our wedding section for ideas and inspiration on all kinds of wedding venues in Lancashire.
