Christmas at Harewood

Christmas at Harewood

More than a visit to Father Christmas, Harewood has partnered with Enchanticas to bring you this all-new immersive experience that invites your family into Father Christmas’ story.

Your adventure begins in the Elf Cocoa Café, where festive treats, joyful songs and a merry welcome from Father Christmas’ elves set the scene for the magical journey ahead.

Then it’s time to explore the Elf Village…

Graduate from Santa School, where music, storytelling and festive fun reveal the true spirit of Christmas.

Visit the Tinker Tent to create a beautiful keepsake to take home.

Stop by the North Pole Post Office to write and send your Christmas wishes on their magical journey.

Enjoy a personal family meeting with Father Christmas, with time to share wishes, hear a little festive magic and create memories you’ll treasure for years to come.

And the magic doesn’t end there…

This year, Magic at the Mansion welcomes back our award-winning partnership with Studio McGuire, bringing the Mansion to life with wonder, sparkle and festive enchantment.

Expect talking furniture, cheeky presents and choral surprises from the most unexpected places. It’s a Christmas experience not to be missed.

And that’s not all…
