Celebrate the festive season at Blenheim Palace with a magical Christmas experience featuring the enchanting story of Cinderella inside the Palace, a spectacular illuminated trail, a covered ice rink, festive shopping and seasonal food and drink.
Seasonally decorated and lavishly themed, it’s Christmas galore as the Palace is transformed into the story of Cinderella by a BAFTA-winning team of designers. From the moment you enter The Great Hall, welcomed by a twinkling tree, take time to enjoy the sights and sounds around you. Walk through a larger-than-life storybook into a glittering world, wander into State Rooms filled with ornaments, mistletoe, holly and baubles. As midnight strikes and the clocks chime, a glass slipper leads Prince Charming to a fairytale Christmas wedding.
Out in the gardens, tree-tops glisten and waterfalls shimmer. With new surprises around every corner, this spectacular trail, boasting more than a million lights, has everything you need for an unforgettable adventure immersed in seasonal song. It’s a shared experience with friends and family that includes a glimpse of Father Christmas himself.
Take your Christmas experience to new heights on the festive Observation Wheel, with stunning views of the Palace and Christmas Market. Enjoy seasonal treats, mulled wine or hot chocolate by the Ice Rink, then explore the award-winning Christmas Market, filled with unique gifts from talented designers and craftspeople.
