Hyde Park Winter Wonderland, the ultimate destination for festive fun, is back with over 150 rides and attractions for visitors of all ages to enjoy. The UK’s largest and most enchanting winter event is thrilled to announce that tickets are on sale today.
Londoners and visitors to the capital can enjoy Hyde Park Winter Wonderland from 14th November 2025 – 1st January 2026. This year’s event promises to be more spectacular and immersive than ever before and is bursting with exciting new experiences.
New for 2025, get ready to step into the revamped Santa Land and visit the largest free Santa’s Grotto experience in London. Little ones will embark on an unforgettable journey this year with a new interactive Elves Workshop and special visits from Mrs. Claus. The Jingle Bell Bistro is a must-visit too, as the world’s first street food market just for kids has a tantalising menu designed for little foodies!
The magic continues at the new Luminarie Lane, featuring a breathtaking, large-scale lighting installation designed and built in Italy bespoke for Winter Wonderland, perfect for capturing festive memories as you enter the park. Beneath this glittering canopy you’ll discover hand-crafted gifts from across the globe, alongside seasonal food and drink to enjoy as you wander through the market. The much-loved Market Square also returns for 2025, with cosy stalls and themed bars for an immersive winter shopping experience.
With a brand-new theme this year, the Magical Ice Kingdom introduces A Mystical, Mythical Fantasy World, where visitors can journey through the Four Realms of Earth, Fire, Air and Water made from over 500 tonnes of ice and snow by expert sculptors across Belgium and the UK. Kept at a crisp -10°C, the Magical Ice Kingdom is one of Europe’s largest ice attractions. Wrap up warm and prepare to uncover a world of icy wonder, complete with giant trolls, a 5m high Griffin, and plenty of photo opportunities along the way.
A visit to the magical Bavarian Village is a tasty pit-stop to enjoy live music, traditional German food and a warming glass of mulled wine. For those seeking warmth and good cheer, you don’t need the Alps to après this year. A brand-new buzzing Après-Ski themed village awaits, complete with festive drinks, bratwurst hot off the grill and live DJs to get the good vibes going. Visit Bar Ice where everything, from the walls to the tables to the glass in your hand, is sculpted from crystal-clear ice. Bundle up to sip show-stopping cocktails and admire the dazzling frozen sculptures and glowing lights.
Winter Wonderland’s returning favourites are back and better than ever. Don’t miss the UK’s largest open-air Ice Rink set under a picturesque canopy of twinkly lights and built around Hyde Park’s iconic Victorian bandstand and the 70m Giant Wheel, a must-do experience to see the magic from new heights. Fancy yourself a thrill seeker? Get ready to race down London’s favourite Real Ice Slide. Perfect for kids and grown-ups alike, it’s all about speed, adrenaline and that “let’s do it again!” feeling.
