After announcing that tickets to the Christmas at Bedgebury light trail have gone on sale, organisers have also confirmed the dates for a second trail this winter.

Christmas Lights at Leeds Castle has revealed that it will return for a third year, with tickets on sale now.

The colourful Christmas Lights at Leeds Castle trail will return this festive season

The trail, which is created by the same team behind the Bedgebury event, sees the castle, just outside of Maidstone, transformed into a grotto of twinkling lights and art installations.

This year, the illuminations will include new features as well as some returning favourites from past years, including the rainbow trees, light tunnels and colour-changing lilies.

There will also be food vendors and stalls selling hot chocolate and spiced winter warmers, as well as a chance to spot Father Christmas along the way.

The trail is similar to the Christmas at Bedgebury attraction, which has also confirmed it will return this year

For those who already have a Leeds Castle admission ticket, which is valid for a year from purchase, there is also the option to add free parking to your Christmas ticket.

The trail will run from Friday, November 22 to New Year’s Day 2025 and can be booked online here.

Visitors can enjoy sparkling art installations, food and drink, seasonal music and a visit from Father Christmas as part of the trail

The attraction has also announced details of the Christmas experience taking place inside the castle this festive season.

A Nutcracker Christmas at the Castle will be an immersive walkthrough with live characters and set designs based on Tchaikovsky’s ballet, including the Sugar Plum Fairy’s grand ballroom and the Land of Sweets.

The experience will open the day after the light trail, on Saturday, November 23.
