John Lewis is set to host an enchanting array of in-store festive experiences and events for Christmas 2025, promising to make the season truly magical for families, friends, and even pets. From meeting Santa in our iconic Grottos to creative and inspiring workshops, there is no better place to enjoy the festive season.
Meeting Santa
John Lewis and The LEGO® Group present Santa’s Enchanted Grotto. Visitors at Oxford Street and Cardiff will take to the skies on an unbelievable adventure to reach Santa’s Post Office, meeting the man himself and leaving with an exclusive LEGO® set.
For the first time customers will be able to book a Welsh speaking session with Santa in Cardiff making the Enchanted Grotto even more special for native speakers.
In six stores customers can Meet Santa to share Christmas dreams and wishes or enjoy festive treats and stories at one of our Santa’s Tea Parties, taking place in 21 stores. At both events children receive a special LEGO® set to take home.
Our four-legged friends are not forgotten either, eight of our stores will offer the Santa Paws Experience where pups old and young can meet Santa and have a photo taken before they leave with a gift just for them.
A Host of Festive Events
Beyond Santa, our shops will be bustling with over 500 festive events designed to inspire and delight.
Join our Christmas Crafting Club to make wreaths, giant decorative bows, and painted candles, or take a masterclass with our John Lewis Stylists on party dressing, creating a capsule winter wardrobe or dressing your home for the festive season.
Customers can try bauble making with Jo Malone, biscuit icing classes with Biscuiteers, or a tablescaping workshop with Sophie Conran.
