Discover the Nutcracker Trail
This year, you can embark on a festive adventure to find fifteen cheeky Nutcrackers hidden around town for a chance to WIN a Christmas hamper. Plus, the first 300 trail-goers will receive an exclusive wooden tree decoration.
In the heart of Kingston, a magical tale unfolds as the town is besieged by the King Rat, threatening to cast darkness over the festive season. But fear not, for a band of brave Nutcrackers emerges to protect the town and restore the magic of Christmas. Free the Nutcrackers by uncovering their true names and embark on a quest to defeat the King Rat and save the Christmas spirit!
