Christmas at Tredegar House

See lavish decorations at Tredegar House this Christmas

Get into the Christmas spirit as we dress the house in traditional decorations and fill it with music and merriment throughout for a truly festive experience.

We all have our favourite ways to ring in the festive cheer of the holidays and this year at Tredegar House we are celebrating Christmas traditions of days gone by and years to come. 

Travel through time with us as we adorn our 17th century mansion house in traditional decorations, from garlands to wreaths and a twinkling Christmas tree in every corner. 

Get a taster for the lavish Twelfth Night masquerade balls thrown by Charles Morgan and finish off your journey by experiencing a night before Christmas in the family bedrooms.

Help make someone else’s Christmas

This year we’ll be continuing our new tradition of turning our Meat Larder into a space for you to give a gift. We’ll be partnering with local food banks who provide food and toiletries to help break the cycle of poverty.

We’re encouraging our Christmas revellers to bring along an item to add to the collection, which we can then donate in time for the big day.
