London's spectacular Hyde Park Winter Wonderland has officially opened its gates for the 2025 festive season, transforming the iconic park into a bustling Christmas market and entertainment hub.
What's on the Menu and What It Costs
The event boasts an impressive array of over 60 food and drink stalls, offering everything from New York-style pizza and Caribbean curries to pulled pork and traditional German bratwurst. For those with a savoury tooth, the delicious cheese fondue makes a welcome return.
Vendors have already released their pricing, giving visitors a chance to budget for their festive outing. At the Apres Ski Party Funhouse, a regular bratwurst bap will set you back £8. For something more indulgent, the cheese-stuffed bratwurst or a 'currywurst' costs £9. Toppings are an additional expense, with roasted onions and cheese sauce priced at £2 each and jalapenos for £1.
A Look at the Drink Prices
The Bavarian Village menu reveals that a festive tipple doesn't come cheap. A 175ml glass of red, white, or rosé wine is priced at £9.50. The standout item, however, is the luxurious hot chocolate topped with cream and a 25ml shot of Baileys, which comes in at a steep £11.50.
It's not all expensive, though. A deluxe hot chocolate without cream is a much more reasonable £3.70, while a standard cup of tea is just £2.50 and coffee is £3.30. For those seeking something stronger, alcohol prices are broadly in line with typical London venues. A pint of Bavarian beer costs £7.90, a Jaeger bomb is £8.95, and individual spirit measures start at £8.25 for a single, climbing to £11.50 for a double.
New Attractions and Booking Information
Foodies have a new reason to visit this year with the return of Le Chalet, which is collaborating with Morty and Bob's for a third year. They are offering a revamped "FUNdue" experience featuring tater tots, pigs in blankets, and flat iron steak skewers for dipping.
Guests can also chill out at the famous Bar Ice, where everything from the walls to the glasses is crafted entirely from ice.
For 2025, Winter Wonderland has introduced four new packages, allowing guests to customise their visit with added perks like ride credits, fast-track upgrades, and food discounts. Admission is free during off-peak times and costs up to £7.50 during peak hours. Furthermore, the entry charge is waived for anyone who pre-purchases £25 or more online in advance.
Hyde Park Winter Wonderland 2025 runs from Friday, November 14th, 2025, to Thursday, January 1st, 2026.
