Kew Gardens Christmas Illuminations and Windsor
Saturday 13 December 2025 (2 Days)
Experience a world of winter magic in Kew Gardens as our acclaimed light trail, Christmas at Kew, returns this festive season.
From November to early January, discover 3km of enchanting illuminations, featuring over 20 dazzling installations, including some cherished favourites and exciting new displays. Stroll through glittering tunnels, admire vibrant lakeside reflections, and marvel at trees gleaming with jewel-toned lights. Wander by the fire garden’s warm glow, enjoy larger-than-life illuminations, and keep an eye out for Father Christmas!
Christmas at Kew is an unmissable opportunity to celebrate Christmas and welcome in the New Year as you walk through a botanical world brimming with seasonal sparkle.
Windsor has a range of seasonal events to enjoy this winter. While there isn’t a traditional Christmas market, you can still experience the festivities with Christmas decorations and the tree at Windsor Castle, the annual lights switch-on event, a woodland lights trail, Santa’s Grotto, ice skating and carriage rides. Look out for one-day fairs, independent markets and the daily live Advent calendar opening.
