Christmas at Kew is an unmissable opportunity to herald the start of the festive season or welcome in the New Year with family and friends. The new 2025 trail promises to be as magical as ever.
Don’t miss spectacular new creations from world-wide artists presented uniquely for the first time in the UK. These larger-than-life illuminations are always unforgettable and to make it even more memorable, glimpse Father Christmas along the way.
Enjoy delicious street food with festive delights ranging from hot dishes and sweet treats to spiced winter warmers and hot chocolate along the trail and in the food court by the Temperate House. The Pavilion Bar & Grill will also be open for walk-ins, offering a special festive menu.
Enjoy a holly, jolly Christmas at Kew under the stars!
