Magical Medieval Christmas

Event

Saturday 19th & Sunday 20th December

Enjoy a magical medieval Christmas this year as The Canterbury Tales is transformed into a festive wonderland for you to explore!

Start your adventure at the Tabard Inn, where Santa’s elf will be busily wrapping gifts in front of the roaring fire. With carol singing and jolly pilgrims along the way it’s then off through the snow-filled streets of old London in search of the fabulous Christmas tree, which will be adorned with medieval decorations such as fruits and animals.

Here the whole family will have the chance to dress up in festive costumes for a fun photo opportunity, and youngsters will be able to write down their Christmas wish and post to Santa in the attraction’s special mail box.

As you continue along the cobbled road, be sure to stop for mead tasting (adults only!) before visiting Santa’s grotto, where there will be a gift for every child.

At journey’s end there will be plenty of time to pick up some last-minute Christmas gifts at the attraction’s medieval gift shop – from fiery green dragon puppets, naughty knight wine bottle holders and mead to quirky gothic giftware, swords and shields, there’s something for everyone!

Tickets are £10 per child (aged 2+), and £7 per adult. All paying children will receive the special gift.

Book your time slot online today - available in 10 minute intervals from 10am. Advanced booking is recommended as we are unable to guarantee availability on the day.

Due to the nature of this event, it will not be possible to take the usual Canterbury Tales tour on 19th & 20th December.
