Old Down Festive Illumination Light Trail (various dates)
Old Down Estate, Tockington
4:30pm-7:15pm, 28th November-28th December (see below for specific dates)
The light trail that families from Bristol and beyond have made part of their Christmas tradition returns for its 5th spectacular year.
After four magical seasons, we know exactly how to bring the sparkle, while ensuring no two Old Down Illumination Trails are ever the same. Discover brand-new displays, wander through glowing walkways, soak up the festive atmosphere in our Christmas Village and watch the Country Park and Estate transform into an enchanting after-dark experience.
Bigger, brighter and more magical than ever, we can't wait to share Christmas 2026 with you.
Make an evening of it in our Christmas Village, where the whole family can share in the festive fun. Toast your free marshmallows over the fire pits, purchase a warm glass of mulled wine or hot chocolate and enjoy our famous apple crumble with cream or custard.
Our Adventure Park will be lit up for even more twilight adventures for the little ones. Dogs are welcome too, so no one has to miss out on the fun.
Please note: When selecting a session time, this is only allocated for entry. You can stay and enjoy the trail and Christmas Village until the park closes at 8pm.
