What if the dates change?
Everything on this page comes from the organiser's own announcements on the date shown at the top. If the organiser moves or cancels anything, their page is the final word, which is why every row links to it.
How do Winter Wonderland tickets work?
The organiser sells timed entry tickets in three tiers. Off-peak slots are marked green on its booking page and apply every Monday to Thursday throughout November, with more off-peak slots added for 2026. Standard slots are marked gold and are available all day on certain dates and across many mornings and afternoons. Peak slots are marked orange. The organiser also lists accessibility tickets. It hasn't published 2026 prices in its guide, and this page will add them with a link when it does.
What about the other London Christmas markets?
Southbank Centre Winter Market, Leicester Square and Winter by the River haven't published confirmed 2026 dates yet, so they aren't listed here. This page will add each one with a link to its organiser when the dates are announced. Guestwise hasn't published a London parking guide, so there are no car park prices on this page.
Own a home in London? Christmas market weekends mean full houses, late arrivals and the 10pm "we can't find the key safe" call. A local manager from the Houst network takes those calls for you, and Guestwise manages short lets from 12% + VAT. See Airbnb management in London.
