A festive trip to London Bridge: Your new Christmas tradition

Everyone has their own idea of the perfect Christmas, and this year’s celebrations in London Bridge promise to tick all the festive boxes. Try your hand at curling, everyone’s favourite Winter Olympic sport, at Vinegar Yard, then warm up with indulgent treats at the Chocolate Bar by Bullion at Tower Bridge Collective. On 8th December, join the lantern parade through Hay’s Galleria, complete with festive singing and a dazzling finale as The Shard’s light show brightens the night sky.

Families are in for a treat at Unicorn Theatre, which delights younger audiences each year. This season’s highlight is How Does Santa Go Down the Chimney for ages 2-102, while Scrunch brings giggles and gurgles for babies aged 6-18 months.

The magic continues along the Queen’s Walk at Winter by the River, where twinkling lights, gifts and delicious food create a true wonderland (with mulled wine for grown-ups!). Festive stalls stretch into London Bridge station, while nearby icons HMS Belfast and Tower Bridges offer first-class family adventures.
