Story have been in the festive spirit since the very beginning of the month, but if you’re not quite there we’ve compiled our top three things to do to really get you in the festive spirit…

Winter Wonderland

Winter Wonderland provides festive fun for all the family, including an open air ice rink around a Victorian bandstand where live music will play as you skate. For young children, take a trip to Santa Land where children get to ride the Santa express, meet his hard-working elves and visit his workshop where the Christmas magic happens! To really get you in the Christmas spirit, why not visit the Christmas market along with the many food and drink stalls that can be found across the site.

Christmas at Kew

Embark upon a sensory journey as you make your way through the gardens, stumbling upon a number of magical scenes that are full of Christmas cheer. Another thing to add to the agenda is Kew karaoke, where you can sing your heart out to an array of Christmas classics. Younger audiences might also enjoy White Peaks, filled with family rides, a Victorian carousel and last, but most certainly not least, you can visit Santa Claus and his elves!

Ice skating at Natural History Museum with Swarovski

Put on your skates and take in the atmosphere as you skate around the Swarovski Christmas tree, surrounded by fairy lights and the smell of mulled wine. The perfect experience to get you feeling super wintery with those you love most! If skating isn’t your thing, why not settle yourself into the Café Bar and balcony with a hot drink and magical views of the skating below. Swarovski sponsor this event so why not have your photo taken on the ice as a souvenir of your trip?
