Brighton & Hove Museums reveals a season of festive fun

Brighton & Hove Museums is bringing Christmas magic to life this year with a range of festive activities for families across the city. From Father Christmas’s return to the Royal Pavilion to an exciting mystery trail at Preston Manor, there’s no shortage of holiday fun for all ages.

For the first time in years, Father Christmas will be back at the Royal Pavilion, welcoming children to the stunning historic palace. Families can book private time slots, allowing little ones to meet Father Christmas, share their wishes, and receive a gift in a relaxed setting. To make a fabulous day out visitors to the Royal Pavilion Ice Rink can take advantage of a new Regency Rate offer giving skaters reduced entry to the Royal Pavilion.

To add to the festive experience, entry slots before 4.30pm include a puzzle trail round the Royal Pavilion to be enjoyed before a visit to the Grotto, with plenty of games, photo ops and seasonal treats along the way. With limited tickets available, visitors are encouraged to book early to ensure they don’t miss this magical experience.

Step into a Regency Christmas

While at the Royal Pavilion, guests can marvel at Regency Christmas trees and learn about festive traditions from King George IV’s era. Visitors will also get to experience A Very Victorian Christmas upstairs, where Queen Victoria’s holiday celebrations at the Pavilion are brought to life.
