Father Christmas in the historic library

Father Christmas is flying into Fulham Palace!

Immerse yourself in the holiday spirit at Fulham Palace, where the winter season transforms the historic grounds into a festive wonderland. Enjoy cosy fires, stunning decorations and tasty mince pies. This year, Father Christmas himself will be making a special stop at the Palace!

Children can join the elves in crafting a special Christmas keepsake before meeting Father Christmas in the historic library. There, they can share their holiday wishes, capture a memorable photo and take home a special gift!
