SmileyWorld® Art Trail in Stockport
Explore a full spectrum of emotions on the SmileyWorld® Art Trail in Stockport this summer.
From 4 July to 13 September 2025, Stockport has transformed into a playful outdoor gallery with a colourful collection of quirky, fun and exciting sculptures, each inspired by the SmileyWorld® icons.
Following huge success in Battersea, London and North Tyneside, the SmileyWorld® Art Trail makes its North West debut, guaranteeing family fun during the school summer holidays – and best of all, it’s completely free to attend.
Each icon features a unique artwork on its reverse side, produced by creatives who were tasked with interpreting and responding to the range of emoticons.
Created in partnership with Totally Stockport.

Explore the trail
Designed as a self-guided experience, the sculptures reflect a broad range of human feelings and invite you to connect and smile – or not! – as you explore Stockport town centre’s key locations and landmarks using free trail maps, complete with games, puzzles and doodles for kids.
