Leeds Castle in Kent continues to offer group days out, combining over 900 years of fascinating history with gardens, festive experiences, and scenery to enjoy throughout the winter season.
Following the recent launch of this year’s festive theme in the Castle, groups can look forward to Wallace & Gromit: A Cracking Christmas Caper, running from 21 November 2026 to 3 January 2027. This brand-new immersive Christmas adventure will lead visitors through the Castle and grounds as Wallace and Gromit investigate a festive mystery filled with clever contraptions, surprises and family-friendly fun.
For those wishing to enhance their visit, groups can also book the magical Christmas Lights at Leeds Castle, as the historic estate is transformed into a winter wonderland. The enchanting, illuminated trail winds through the Castle grounds, featuring light displays, the Christmas Cathedral and the Water Fountain Show. Seasonal food and drink, hot chocolate and festive treats complete this evening, while Father Christmas makes special appearances for younger visitors.
A selection of bookable Christmas dining experiences are also available throughout the festive season. Guests can enjoy the new Christmas Masquerade Ball, a Regency-inspired evening featuring a sparkling reception, a three-course dinner in the Grand Salon, live music and dancing within the enchanting surroundings of the Castle. Alternatively, visitors can embrace an evening of intrigue with one of two immersive Christmas Murder Mystery Dinners, where festive celebrations are interrupted by a whodunnit, complete with seasonal dining, interactive entertainment and overnight accommodation packages for those wishing to extend their stay.
