Christmas at Blenheim Palace and The Great Skate

Blenheim Palace in Oxfordshire will be transformed, both inside and out, offering a wonderful treat for the whole family this Christmas. So book your tickets and join in the festivities.

New for 2024 is The Great Skate. The Palace’s Great Court will be hosting a fabulous covered outdoor real-ice rink. Sessions last 45 minutes and child skate aids are available (subject to availability). Skate marshals will be on hand to offer guidance. Minimum age for skating is three years.

Once again the stunning Christmas Light Trail will illuminate the ’Capability’ Brown landscaped parkland after dark. Look forward to a host of glowing lights and a festive soundscape to add to the atmosphere. You may even catch a glimpse of Father Christmas along the route!

Meanwhile, in the Palace visitors can discover the magical world of Neverland®. See how Tinkerbell has sprinkled fairy dust on the Christmas decorations in the State rooms, take a stroll through the London skyline by moonlight and venture onto the Mermaid Lagoon.

In addition, on selected dates in December there will be a Christmas Market and fairground rides to add to the fun.

Book tickets in advance – capacity is limited.
