Christmas at Dyffryn Gardens 2024
From 7 December - 5 January enjoy Christmas crafts and get all the cosy festive family feels at Dyffryn Gardens.
- Booking not needed
- Free event (admission applies)
Find yourself in a garden full of festive family fun, make your way to the Snowman Zone and decorate a "snow family", play snowman hoopla and giant snowball kerplunk. Then immerse yourself in a classic Christmas tale in the Nutcracker Zone with a puppet theatre, nutcracker skittles, and the special sugarplum and lollipop game and a mini nutcracker marble run. Hop into Father Christmas’ sleigh or pose in front of the giant Christmas tree in front of Dyffryn House for a festive family picture before heading to the Gallery Café for Christmas crafts and to see all the Christmas stockings hanging from the ceiling and the cosy "fireplace" made completely from second-hand books!
On weekends in December we will be running children’s Christmas decoration workshops in the Gallery Café. There’s no need to pre-book and no charge (normal admission applies).
