As we’re open 365 days a year, Center Parcs is a great place to celebrate your Christmas or New Year’s Eve! We have a range of breaks available including three, four, seven or eight nights between the 24th December and 2nd January. There’s something for the whole family to explore in the magical forest!
Christmas Eve

Our Winter Wonderland will be running until Monday 2nd January along with all our festive offerings. To find out more information head to our Winter Wonderland post!
Santa’s Woodland Village is free to enter and includes lots of wonderful sights including Toadstools, playful elves and much more! Little ones love our singing reindeer! Worked up an appetite with all that walking? Head down to our Forest Festive Fayre where you can find lots of tasty treats and warm up with a hot drink!

Gaze up at the twinkling lights accompanied by captivating festive tunes at our Enchanted Light Garden! It’s free to enter and is suitable for all ages!
Ready to wind down? Nestle down for the night in one of our cosy lodges, don’t forget to pre-order or pick up our smokeless logs for the fire! You can even turn your lodge into a grotto with our Christmas Tree, Lights and Decorations Pack!
On the day itself…
We know that everyone celebrates Christmas Day differently, so whichever way you do Christmas, we have something special for everyone here at Center Parcs.
Wake up on Christmas morning surrounded by your loved ones in a beautiful forest setting and start Christmas your way. Head to one of our restaurants for a tasty festive lunch or if you’d prefer to cook a traditional turkey dinner, our lodges are fully equipped with cooking facilities.
In the evening why not curl up for a festive film or get everyone together for a board game? Our lodges are designed to bring families together.
Boxing Day
On Boxing Day, you can head out for a walk in the forest or enjoy one of our activities! It’s the perfect opportunity to burn off some of that turkey dinner! From cycling to our indoor climbing walls, there’s lots of ways to keep active!
New Year’s Eve
Ring in the new year with a difference this year and start 2024 surrounded by your loved ones in the forest! Looking to bring the whole family together? Celebrate larger than life with our 6 bed lodges – there’s plenty of room for everyone or for something with a little luxury book a hot tub lodge or Treehouse!
