This Christmas, step into a magical festive world where history and imagination meet, in the long-awaited sequel to 2019’s award-winning ‘Night at the Mansion’.

A troop of not-so-angelic cherubs have escaped from the Christmas tree and Harewood House sparkles into life with singing baubles, swirling ceilings and gossiping statues. Marvel as the House tells you festive tales of bygone times, in an unforgettable experience that will delight visitors of all ages.

Mischief at the Mansion is brought to Harewood by Studio McGuire. Davy and Kristin McGuire are multi-award winning, Yorkshire-based, mixed reality artists, internationally renowned for their innovative explorations in immersive art, storytelling and digital projections. Their 2019 show ‘Night at the Mansion’ won widespread acclaim including Innovation of the Year at the Museum and Heritage Awards, and Harewood’s Members will be delighted to know that the talking plates are back!

“What they have created is a beguiling world of digital wizardry that leaves you mesmerised as you walk from one room to the next.” – Yorkshire Evening Post

“Not seen anything like it before – so clever. Loved it!” – Carol, New York

A timed ticket to Mischief at the Mansion gives access to the full festive day out at Harewood. Friday 15 November is the exclusive Members’ Preview.

Please note that a car parking pass is needed when travelling by car to visit this exhibition. A £5 car parking pass can be pre-booked online or purchased at our entrance gate subject to availability. Members receive free parking as a perk of your Membership and do not need to book a parking pass.

Harewood's Collections

If you’re hoping to view Harewood’s iconic collection of paintings, ceramics and furniture, we recommend postponing your visit until the festive season has come to a close.

The cherubs have taken over the House with Christmas magic, so it’s best you wait until March when Harewood returns to normal!
