Winter Glow has extended its sensory-friendly offering this year as part of its ongoing commitment to making Christmas as accessible for as many families as possible.
The West Midlands’ biggest multi-attraction festive experience, Winter Glow is due to be held from 20 November to 31 December 2026 at the Three Countries Showground in Malvern.
While at Winter Glow, visitors can enjoy ice skating on the West Midland’s largest indoor ice rink, UV Glow Crazy Golf, the Illuminated Light Trail with more than 30 unique installations with the theme of The Tale of Atlas Frost for 2026, and truly special personalised Father Christmas experiences.
In response to demand and as part of Winter Glow’s continuing dedication to improving accessibility, sensory-friendly sessions will take place throughout the duration of the festive event.
New for 2026, sensory-friendly ice-skating sessions are planned to take place at 6pm on 4, 11 and 18 December as well as at 5pm on 27 December. These sessions will offer a much-reduced capacity as well as lower music volume.
Sensory-friendly light trail sessions will begin at 4:15pm, in daylight, and also include lower music volume and reduced capacity. These sessions will be held on 27 November as well as on 4,11 and 18 December.
And for those wanting to visit the Father Christmas experience, sensory-friendly sessions, also with reduced capacity and lower music volume, will be held at 5:40pm on 27 November, 4 and 11 December, as well as at 10:20am and 6:20pm on 18 December.
Chris Tarren, Founder of Winter Glow, said: “Winter Glow is all about having magical Christmas fun together and we want that to be accessible to as many visitors as possible. Changes we made last year were really well received so we’ve worked hard to offer extra sensory-friendly sessions to enable even more families to join us.”
Winter Glow and its attractions are all wheelchair accessible, and the event also offers complimentary carers tickets for the Illuminated Light Trail and UV Crazy Golf to make Winter Glow even easier for families.
