'A Victorian Festival of Christmas'

Friday 27 – Sunday 29 November

10am – 6pm

Transport your family on a journey through time to experience a day out, Victorian-style, at the tenth annual Victorian Festival of Christmas at Portsmouth Historic Dockyard, where snow is guaranteed.

Whilst revelling in the traditional seasonal cheer of a white Victorian Christmas, your family can step back over 150 years to experience the strict rules of a Victorian school, sample hearty Victorian food, visit a traditional Victorian ‘green’ Father Christmas, play parlour games, join in with novel bawdy music hall in Fagin’s Tavern and delight in traditional Christmas carols, street and fairground entertainments.

Watch out for those pickpockets along the way, who will be joined by Fagin himself and a host of other colourful Victorian characters such as Scrooge, Mr Bumble and the event will get the Royal seal of approval with a special appearance by Queen Victoria.

Wander through the European-style shopping village, Victorian Street, Georgian colonnades and discover superb quality gifts, fine crafts, festive food and drink at the biggest Christmas market on the South Coast.
