Winter at Marwell

Colourful light decorations on a house with winter snow flake projections

About

Father Christmas and his elves are sadly unable to visit Marwell this year but that hasn't stopped them from lighting up the front of Grade 1 listed Marwell Hall as they do every year for you to enjoy.

Capture the perfect family photo as a lasting memory of the day beside an enchanting princess carriage filled with firefly fairy lights, Santa's sleigh with flying reindeers or a magical display of Christmas trees.
Marwell would love to see your family Christmas Card selfies! Dress in your finest festive costumes and jumpers and take a selfie fit for a Christmas card around the zoo to be in with a chance of winning a £100 John Lewis hamper.

They will be spreading some cheer on their social media channels too with their 12 Days of Christmas, giveaways and more so make sure you follow them and share snaps of your cosy winter days out.

Don't forget to download and print out your letters to Father Christmas before your visit to post in the giant post box at the zoo.

Marwell are a conservation charity so simply by visiting you'll be giving something back this Christmas and directly helping amazing projects to conserve habitats and species in the UK and around the world.

When you book, please choose to make a ten percent donation and tick the Gift Aid box as this means they are able to reclaim tax from the Government on the full ticket price– that's an extra 25 per cent to help them secure the future of wildlife for generations to come at no extra cost to you. Without your support, they cannot claim back any tax at all.
