Directions

What to expect

The elves send Santa’s sleigh back to Lapland in a parade through Santa Land.

Worth knowing

It runs on selected days rather than every day, so check the operator’s calendar against the date you have booked. Nothing to pay beyond park entry.

Part of Hyde Park Winter Wonderland, which runs from Thursday 19 November 2026 to Sunday 3 January 2027 and is closed on Christmas Day only. Park entry is booked as a dated one hour arrival slot and costs a pound off peak, five pounds fifty standard and eight pounds twenty five at peak, or nothing at all if you add twenty five pounds of rides, food or attractions to the same booking. Booking fees are included in those prices this year.

Nearby

Mayfair has the nearest stations and everything else on in the same part of town. The Hyde Park page collects every listing we hold for that address. Filed under Seasonal.
