Covent Garden Christmas

Have a merry Christmas when you visit London’s Covent Garden. It's perfect for festive food, shopping and entertainment.

Covent Garden's Traditional Christmas in London

If you're looking for a traditional Christmas experience, Covent Garden's Christmas features a 12m (40ft) Christmas tree, choirs, family-friendly storytelling, mulled wine and roast chestnuts. Under the twinkling Christmas lights, you can press your nose and mittens against the windows of the vintage shop-fronts and gasp at the treasures within!

You'll spot a few famous faces in Covent Garden this Christmas – some of Santa's real reindeer will be visiting the plaza to meet the kids. You won't miss the giant topiary reindeer, because it’s nearly as tall as the tree!
