Christmas at Waddesdon

This Christmas step into the gardens at Waddesdon, aglow with magical lights and displays. Join us for festive fun in an outdoor extravaganza to brighten the end of the year.

Browse charming chalets selling handmade gifts and festive foods at the Christmas fair, set in front of the Manor (13 Nov – 23 Dec 2021).
As twilight falls, follow the Winter Light trail and see the Pleasure Grounds transformed with dramatic colour and playful installations. Stroll under the stars beneath illuminated tree canopies, look out for the rose garden glowing with flowers and walk through a tunnel of light loops.

See the spectacle of the Manor's façade illuminated with dancing lights set to music. For the first time ever, watch the Parterre brought to life by a dazzling light show, highlighting the geometric shapes of the garden beds. Encounter Illuminated River, a display of light works by artist, Leo Villareal who has been lighting up London's bridges in a project supported by the Rothschild Foundation.
Have yourself an even merrier little Christmas, by booking a sparkling afternoon tea at the Manor Restaurant.

All visits must be booked in advance – plan early to secure your day and entry of choice.
