Christmas Tree Festival 2025

Discover Christ Church in a brand new way this Christmas with our sparkling Christmas Tree Festival.

From 1 December, you can follow our trail of Christmas trees spread around the Christ Church site. From our monastic past to Lewis Carrol’s Alice in Wonderland, each tree is carefully designed by members of our community to both tell a part of Christ Church’s story and share the joy of Christmas with you.

Access to the festival is included with your ticket. Both self-led multimedia guide tours and guided tours, including our lantern-led festive tours are available. To book your tickets now, visit https://www.chch.ox.ac.uk/visit/tickets-and-information

As a working institution, parts of the trail may not be available at all times when areas are in use for events or services. Please note that there is no step-free access to the Cloister and Chapter House.
