Blenheim Palace Christmas Market 2022

This Christmas at Blenheim Palace there will be a fantastic new festive trail and a new exquisitely themed Palace interior, plan.

It's one of the highlights of the UK festive calendar, wander the Palace’s picture-perfect gardens filled with Christmas cheer as well over a million lights and seasonal sounds fill the air. 

Look forward to some wonderful time together with family and friends as you discover glittering tunnels of light, dancing lakeside reflections and trees drenched in jewel-like colour. For a moment of reflection, pause at mesmerising flickering flames in the fire garden, enjoy awe-inspiring larger-than-life illuminations and don’t forget to glimpse Father Christmas along the way, too.

Their crew of talented independent street food vendors bring a delicious twist to tempting treats. To make it properly festive, complete your walk under the stars with a spiced winter warmer or hot chocolate shared with someone special.

The Kingdom of the Snow Queen re-imagined within Britain’s Greatest Palace

New for 2022, you'll be able to explore the Palace rooms, each one exquisitely and vibrantly transformed and filled with hidden surprises. You'll discover the glistening Land of Snowflakes filled with a silvery frost-covered forest and venture into the wintery Kingdom of Ice adorned with larger-than-life shimmering crystals. It’s a fairy-tale world where we really want a happy-ever-after. 

Will the ice-cold Snow Queen change her ways? Perhaps the kind reindeer will save the day and help reunite the two young friends. This fantastical winter wonderland is where the magic really begins.

Entry to the Kingdom of the Snow Queen within the Palace is free to Annual Pass holders before 15.45.

The Christmas Market

The Christmas Market is returning, with many designer/maker craft traders who'll be housed in special dedicated festive wooden chalets in the Great Court. Their distinctive range of artisanal products will make perfect treats and gifts for this Christmas.

The Christmas Market will be open at 10.30 every day from now until each day between 18th December 2022, except for 5th December when it will open at 11.30, instead. 

On nights the illuminated trail is taking place, the market will close at 20.30 and on non-illuminated trail nights, the market will close at 17.30.

Christmas Afternoon Tea

Their magical Ice Kingdom Themed Afternoon Tea will run until 2nd January 2023 at the Orangery. Afternoon tea can be added at the end of the Christmas booking process, however, you'll be required to have a valid Christmas at Blenheim Palace ticket to experience the Afternoon Tea.

There is a limited capacity with timed entry. Plan now to secure the date and time of your choice.

If donated, tickets for the Kingdom of the Snow Queen can be converted to an Annual Pass during your Christmas visit or on the next visit (pass will be valid from date of ticket purchase).
