The lights are twinkling, the mulled wine is flowing and London’s festive season is in full swing.
Whether you’re looking to get into the Christmas spirit or simply enjoy a cozy winter adventure in the city, here are 10 of the best things to do in London this season.
Get your skates on at a scenic ice rink
In the colder months, many of the city’s most spectacular landmarks play host to grand ice-skating rinks. Against the magnificent neoclassical architecture of Somerset House, the courtyard has been given a Swiss makeover, complete with a pop-up Alpine restaurant serving cheese fondue and waffles. There’s also a series of “Skate Late” sessions featuring renowned DJs spinning tunes while you glide under the stars. Pre-booking is recommended as slots sell out quickly.
If you fancy an even…fancier setting, Henry VIII’s former residence, Hampton Court Palace, is a 35-minute train journey from Waterloo and offers stunning views of Tudor architecture as well as skating thrills. Afterward, head inside the palace to learn more about the dramas of the Tudor court.
