“Every part of it was perfect. A night I will always treasure.”
Charlotte, TimeOut ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Somewhere in the City, a ravishing Victorian Christmas world has appeared.
Discover an enchanted door near London Bridge that leads to the streets of Victorian London and the home of Charles Dickens, on the Eve of Christmas, 1843.
Enter a world created by master experience makers The Lost Estate and built by a fantastical host of legendary designers, musicians, writers, and chefs, from events like The Lost Love Speakeasy, Beauty and the Feast, The Great Masked Ball, Alice Underground’s Wonderland Bar and more.
Lose yourself in a magical retelling of Dickens’ A Christmas Carol
The candles flicker and night draws in. Watch in wonder, as Dickens’ iconic festive tale comes to life all around you. Sneer at Scrooge, feast with the Cratchits, guffaw at the Ghost of Christmas Present and shiver at the Shade of Christmas Yet To Come.
Be transported across leagues and years by stunning live music and star actor Adam Clifford who returns to his acclaimed role as Charles Dickens for 2020.
Indulge in a Feast by Star Chef, David Lagonell
Savour three all-new mouthwatering plates of Christmas indulgence woven into the very heart of the story.
There’s fiendishly moreish Victorian Street Food, the deliriously unfinishable Cratchits’ Christmas Feast, and a celebratorily spectacular Christmas Wassail.
Each course is cooked by the legendary David Lagonell, founding Head Chef of Yotam Ottolenghi’s iconic restaurant Nopi.
