Christmas Stamps

The 2025 Christmas Stamps from Isle of Man Post Office are created in collaboration with students and alumni at University College Isle of Man (UCM) to mark the institution’s Milestone Celebrations: 145 years of the Douglas School of Art, 50 years of the Homefield Road Campus, and over a decade of the Annie Gill Centre. The vibrant colours represent UCM’s faculty colours.

Each stamp tells the story of Christmas Traditions from the viewpoint of the UCM students and alumni who designed the stamp.

Order them from our online shop, at local post offices, or through our convenient kiosks.
