“The Experience you can’t miss”

Truly Immersive

This is not to be missed

How it Works

1. Enter the enchanted home of Charles Dickens

London, Christmas Eve, 1843. You are Charles Dickens’ guest of honour as he unveils a ghostly Christmas story. A legendary night of bewitching storytelling, festive feasting, and Yuletide mixology awaits…

2. Lose yourself in the magic of ‘A Christmas Carol’

Sneer at Scrooge, rejoice for Tiny Tim, shiver at all the Ghosts of Christmas. Dickens’ iconic tale is transformed into a breathtaking immersive experience by cinematic live music, and spellbinding theatre.

3. Indulge in a Yuletide Feast

Three mouthwatering dishes woven into the heart of the story. A Victorian Street Market starter, the Dickens’s lavish Duck Feast for mains and a spice-laden, booze-laced dessert. All accompanied by a menu of transportive Victorian cocktails.
