Winter is just around the corner, and there’s no better way to kick off the festive season than with a magical night out at Hyde Park Winter Wonderland’s VIP Preview Night on 16 November 2023. As one of the UK’s most enchanting winter events, Hyde Park Winter Wonderland has captivated visitors for over two decades, and this exclusive evening promises to be nothing short of extraordinary.

A Night of Exclusivity and Generosity

Before the grand gates of Hyde Park Winter Wonderland swing open to the public, the VIP Preview Night offers an exclusive opportunity for attendees to experience all the wonder and excitement before anyone else. What’s more, every penny spent during this special evening goes to support The Royal Parks charity, making it a night of both indulgence and generosity.

On this unique night, you’ll have unlimited access to London’s largest outdoor ice rink, be dazzled by the extraordinary performances at Zippo’s Circus, take a spin on the Giant Observation Wheel for stunning views of the city, and step into the enchanting world of The Magical Ice Kingdom. 

But that’s not all; you can also enjoy thrilling funfair rides and exhilarating roller coasters, making it an unforgettable night of adventure. And for the little ones, Santa Land offers miniature rides, ensuring there’s something for everyone in the family to enjoy.

The Ultimate Christmas Destination

Hyde Park Winter Wonderland is not just an event; it’s an experience that captures the true spirit of Christmas. Running for six magical weeks from the VIP Preview Night to the New Year, 1 January 2024, Winter Wonderland transforms London’s iconic Hyde Park into the ultimate festive destination.

During your visit, you can expect a wide range of attractions, activities, entertainment, food, drinks, and more. Whether you’re an adrenaline junkie seeking high-thrill rides or a family looking for heartwarming performances, Winter Wonderland has it all. Treat your taste buds to classic festive treats and explore the newest additions to London’s vibrant street food scene. And when it’s time to relax, cosy fire pit bars and mythical ice kingdoms await you.

Winter Wonderland is open daily from 10:00 a.m. to 10:00 p.m., except on Christmas Day. Mornings are perfect for families, allowing you to explore the wonders of Winter Wonderland at a leisurely pace. As the evening descends, Hyde Park comes alive with thousands of sparkling lights, creating a truly enchanting atmosphere. Sip on mulled wine, indulge in hot chocolate, or savour a stein of Bavarian beer as you enjoy the festive fun.

Since its humble beginnings as an open-air Christmas market, Hyde Park Winter Wonderland has evolved into a spectacular extravaganza. It offers ice skating, dazzling shows, thrilling roller coasters, mouthwatering street food stalls, festive bars, and live music, all set against the picturesque backdrop of Hyde Park.

As one of London’s eight Royal Parks, Hyde Park is a renowned destination for locals and tourists. Covering 350 acres, it boasts iconic landmarks such as the Serpentine Lake, Speakers’ Corner, and the Diana Princess of Wales Memorial Fountain. So why not make a day of it? Start your adventure with a stroll through the park, soaking in its natural beauty, and then cap it off with a visit to Winter Wonderland for an evening of enchantment.
