Cambridge, we are switching on the sparkle as we bring Christmas in Cambridge back to Parker’s Piece from 13 November to 31 December.

Explore a festive village with our Christmas Market, glide on the open air rink, wander an enchanting Christmas Tree Maze with over 300 illuminated trees, ride the Big Wheel for twinkly views, and find cosy corners from the Alpine Lodge to the Christmas Tipi and our Après Terrace with curling and games.

Entry is free and Santa drops in at weekends, so bring family and friends for seasonal food, warming drinks and a night under the lights.
