Tulleys Christmas Light Festival is back for 2025

Tulleys Christmas Light Festival is officially back for 2025, launching its run on Friday, November 28, and delighting visitors through January 3. This Crawley attraction has been comprehensively transformed into a truly brilliant winter wonderland, delivering an immersive, festive escape that's perfect for the season.

The festive energy is immediate upon arrival. The entrance area itself establishes a cheerful holiday tone, featuring fully decorated Christmas trees, inviting firepits, and charming décor stalls.

The Trail

The immersive light experience is designed across several distinct environments. Love Lane is a captivating, romantic trail lit by glowing hearts, twinkling lights, and elegant lanterns, highlighted by a heart-shaped tunnel and playful quotes, making this a fantastic setting for photos. Let It Snow creates a serene, pure white haven, complete with softly glowing angel wings and a captivating snow simulator, bringing the winter season to life. The Fire and Ice area delivers an intense contrast, where projections, powerful bursts of fire, and water fountains move in dramatic synchronisation with music. Twilight Reflections follows with a beautiful, soft spectacle of colored lights rippling across the water complemented by fountains that gracefully rise and fall like a ballet. The Enchanted Forest feels genuinely like stepping into a storybook, featuring incredibly realistic 3D fairies, glowing flowers, tiny huts, and a sophisticated, moving projection of wildlife. Major showpieces include The Spirit of Christmas, where a huge floating snowflake dominates the water amidst cinematic light and fountain choreography, and Merry Magic, where Christmas trees illuminate in harmony with the music through a glowing tunnel.

Features and Amenities

Dominating the skyline is the unmissable 33-meter Observation Wheel. This feature offers spectacular panoramic views of the illuminated festival and the surrounding countryside. A marshmallow-toasting spot nearby perfectly adds to the cozy mood.

The Alpine Village functions as a warm, rustic central hub with wooden cabins and forest-themed seating. It offers an impressive selection of high-quality food and drink, including authentic wood-fired pizza.

For those wishing to dance, the Let’s Dance area, complete with a disco ball, is ready for an impromptu dance session. Alternatively, there are two live music stages with talented performers that are located around the park for visitors who want to sit and soak up the Christmas atmosphere.

The culinary choices are both extensive and hard to resist, including giant footlong hotdogs, fresh doughnuts, crumble pots, Yorkshire pudding wraps, pick ’n’ mix, and much more. And if you’re lucky, you may spot the roaming performers, such as the stilt walkers and beautifully costumed wintery characters, throughout the evening.

For an upgraded experience, the VIP ticket grants entry to the Après Club which is a luxurious, warm hideaway featuring a resident DJ and comfortable lounge seating.

Tulleys has successfully executed an exceptional event for 2025, delivering pure Christmas joy that is captivating and completely enchanting.
