Plan Your Perfect Festive Group Visit at Leeds Castle
Leeds Castle in Kent is preparing for a spectacular festive season, offering groups the chance to combine more than 900 years of history with magical Christmas experiences, beautiful grounds and plenty of seasonal entertainment. Even better, current group admission rates are frozen until March 2028, giving group organisers and coach operators added value when planning future visits.
This Christmas, the Castle welcomes Wallace & Gromit: A Cracking Christmas Caper, running from 21 November 2026 to 3 January 2027. This brand-new immersive adventure will take groups on a festive journey through the Castle and grounds, as Wallace and Gromit investigate a Christmas mystery packed with ingenious inventions, surprises and plenty of family-friendly fun.
For an evening experience, Christmas Lights at Leeds Castle transforms the historic estate into a spectacular winter wonderland. The illuminated trail winds through the grounds, bringing dazzling light displays, the iconic Christmas Cathedral and an impressive Water Fountain Show to life. Visitors can also enjoy seasonal food and drink, warming hot chocolate and festive treats, with appearances from Father Christmas adding to the magic for younger guests.
Groups looking to make their visit extra special can also choose from a range of bookable Christmas dining experiences. The new Christmas Masquerade Ball offers a Regency-inspired evening, including a sparkling reception, three-course dinner in the Grand Salon, live music and dancing.
Alternatively, groups can step into a festive whodunnit with one of two Christmas Murder Mystery Dinners, combining seasonal dining with interactive entertainment and the option of overnight accommodation.
Whether it's a coach trip, social club outing or Christmas celebration, Leeds Castle has plenty to offer groups this festive season and with new attractions and experiences for 2026, it is one to put firmly on the Christmas planning list.
