London has become a hotspot for festive celebrations and day trips, with its magical light displays and hundreds of high-end boutiques to get all your Christmas shopping done.
For your perfect day trip to London, it needs to include a visit to Oxford Street’s famous illuminations.
However, Carnaby Street comes in a close second with its bold displays, making it the perfect spot for your festive photos.
For the theatre lovers, Christmas is the best time to catch a West End show, including The Lion King, Wicked and Mamma Mia.
If you are looking to tick off your wish list, Oxford Street offers hundreds of shops to meet all your needs and Bond Street is the go-to place for luxury gifts.
For families, Hamleys is the best place to distract the kids, with a magical Christmas makeover and incredible festive window displays, whilst Covent Gardens offers a range of independent stores and street entertainment.
After you’ve treated the kids, it’s time to pass the torch on to Santa and visit the array of mini North Pole villages the city has to offer.
In Borough Yards near London Bridge, there is a new festival attraction, Wundrful World, in which a trip to Santa turns into an enchanting 50-minute immersive experience.
If you want to combine a fun activity with seeing Santa, both London Zoo and the London Transport Museum are offering luxury experiences with VIP breakfasts and sleigh rides before a one-on-one with Mr Claus.
To end your Christmas day out, you can grab some dinner and ice skate on the open-air rink at Battersea Power Station.
However, if you’re looking for all your festivities in one place, Winter Wonderland has theme park rides and delicious food stands for everyone.
Taking place in the beautiful Hyde Park, the fair runs from 14 November 2025 to 1 January 2026, and with its carnival games, live shows and ice bar, it is perfect for the whole family.
