Not been since Covid. Thinking of booking tickets this year.

Your idea of good Christmas fun or hell on earth?

Sounds wonderful. In reality I've been told it's an expensive way to look around hat stalls and over-priced food huts.

I can do that for free on the Embankment.

Ice sculptures would be nice, but I'm not paying to see them, and I can't ice skate.

If there was a hut selling hot chocolate with Amaretto I might buy one, but drink it through gritted teeth as I tell myself I have Green and Blacks cocoa at home and Iceland sells amaretto for less than this drink.

Thanks for all the input, I’ll probably do it as the kids love it, previously went as soon as it opened during the day before it got too crowded.

Now it’s ticketed won’t have to, I think it’s a fun few hours but am prepared to be rinsed for the rides / attractions!

Have also done the lights at Kew Gardens and Chiswick House, both spectacular but now kiddos are at an age where it would be a bit meh!

It looks like a good start to Christmas festivities if you have children, who like fairground attractions.

Avoid the ‘tree’ in Claridges hotel, I work there and I wouldn’t recommend it at all

Disappointing this year. Great for kids and drinkers. Crap for middle aged women looking for over priced tat to use as Christmas presents.

Actually lots of guys cruise in the rose garden throughout the year its very popular. I'm just wondering if any couples or women stop by on their way to wonderland
