Christmas at Castle Drogo returns in late 2026 as a seasonal attraction located near Exeter. Admission is required to visit the venue, which operates on selected dates throughout the festive period. The castle will be accessible every Friday, Saturday, and Sunday starting in late November before opening daily from mid-December until Christmas Day. Various performers are scheduled to present events during this run.
The Castle will be open every Friday, Saturday, and Sunday from November 27 then daily from 21 December until 31 December excluding the 24, 25, 26 December when the castle will be closed.
Even on the wettest Dartmoor day, we’ve got plenty to keep families entertained inside the castle.
The garden is open and provides good level access walking routes for visitors throughout the season. Winter is a great time to admire the architecture of the gardens, take in the views across Dartmoor or simply enjoy a bit more of a sheltered walk.
Join us for family fun and take part in the outdoor Children’s trail.
Throughout the Christmas period we will have different musicians in the Drawing room bringing Christmas cheer.
