Wednesday 3rd December 2025 to Sunday 4th January 2026

Venue: Chawton House

Throughout December, experience the magic of our Glimmering Gardens in a treat for the whole family.

After you have enjoyed the beautiful decorations in the House, wrap up warm and explore the Gardens as they come to life in twinkling lights. See the Walled Garden illuminated with the woodland creatures that call Chawton House home, and walk through the Shrubbery lit up to reveal a different side of our Gardens after dark.

The Glimmering Gardens is open from 3-6pm on opening days, and entry is included in the price of admission (Garden or House & Garden tickets) from December 3rd to January 4th. You can also join us for the Glimmering Gardens premier – a special late opening – on Saturday 29 November.

Opening Days:

3 Dec-21 Dec: Weds-Sun | 22 Dec-4 Jan: Every day (except 24, 25, and 26 Dec, and no Glimmering Gardens on New Year’s Eve)
