‘A Night at the Mansion’, Christmas at Harewood

Saturday 23 November 2019 – Sunday 5 January 2020
10am – 5.30pm

It’s ‘after hours’, the doors are closed and it’s the moment when Harewood House really comes alive.

The statues are singing, the paintings are gossiping and there’s hustle and bustle both above and below stairs, with the anticipation of an important guest in the run up to a truly festive Christmas.

Created by acclaimed British artistic duo Davy & Kristin McGuire, from Studio McGuire, open the doors, look under the stairs, listen out for chatter and gossip and follow the music as Yorkshire’s most exciting country house presents its interpretation of Christmas.

With workshops, festive-themed music, events, market weekends, cooking demonstrations and, of course, an opportunity to meet with Father & Mrs Christmas, there’s much to explore this festive season at Harewood.

Please note that this is a daytime exhibition; the ticket is for full day entry. View our full opening hours >>
