A Very Merry Mount Cook Christmas

A Christmas Fayre, Santa's Grotto, and lots more!



About

5th December 2026 4:00 pm - 8:00 pm

Join us for a magical evening where families and friends can together, make magical memories, and soak up the festive spirit of Christmas!

Explore our Christmas Fayre, packed with wonderful stallholders, and visit the Mount Cook stall to pick up your Free Elf Christmas trail! then set off on our where's the elf! trail, searching high and low throughout the building to discover all the mischievous elves hiding away.

Head outdoors to gather around the campfire, sing along to Christmas carols, and toast marshmallows beneath the twinkling outdoor lights. When it’s time to warm up, our Dining Hall will be serving festive favourites, including turkey cobs, loaded chips, mulled wine, and indulgent deluxe hot chocolates, festive bakes and treats! For those feeling creative, pop over to Riber and take part in a wreath-making or Christmas ornament workshop, using natural materials collected from our very own grounds (classes to be booked in advance).

Whether you’re looking forward to festive treats, getting creative with seasonal crafts, or simply spending quality time with family and friends, there’s something for everyone to enjoy. Come along and make some magical Christmas memories with us!
