What’s on

Holkham Hall by Candlelight, a self-led visit

As seen on Channel 4’s ‘Christmas at Holkham’, the Hall’s state rooms are decked each year, making them truly magical, and it’s even better in person! Be amazed as you take it all in on this self-led tour this Christmastime.

Self-led tour dates will allow you to explore the rooms at your own pace, but don’t worry – our Hall Guides will be on hand to share inspiration behind each room and answer any questions.

Please check in at the Visitor Reception on arrival before heading over to the Hall for your Candlelight experience. Peruse the beautiful state rooms slowly, enjoying the stunning scenes and decorations and taking photos to inspire your own Christmas decorating!

Our shop will be open with gifts and Christmas decorations, and the Courtyard Café offers seasonal food and beverages.

And if you simply cannot wait, enjoy a browse of these photos from the last few years…
