Christmas at Warwick Castle

Soak up the magic of Christmas on a family day out at Warwick Castle this winter as you enjoy the twinkling trees, stunning decorations and festive touches wherever you look. Back for Christmas 2025 is a variety of festive attractions, including the evening Light Trail. Gaze at the mesmerising twinkling lights and projections lighting up the castle, its grounds and the sky.

Meanwhile, the Open-Air Ice Rink invites visitors to enjoy ice skating in the shadow of the magnificent castle. All aged over three years are welcome and there are skate aids for kids (subject to availability) and a handrail around the outside for those needing extra confidence.

Adding to the atmosphere, on selected dates in the run-up to Christmas young visitors can enjoy Stories with Santa. Join the mischievous elves for some fun before meeting Santa and Mrs Claus for a story. Children will receive a gift and there will even be a surprise for their grown ups.

For a very special treat, why not turn your day out into a short break and book a Santa Sleepover for the family? You will be woken by the sound of sleigh bells and an elf will bring a present for the children.

Availability of activities may vary depending on the date of your visit.

Various ticket options are available and advance booking is advisable to avoid disappointment.
