Christmas Daytimes at Beamish Museum

A daily festive event running 21 November to 24 December 2026 across the open-air museum's period areas, telling the story of Christmas from the Georgian period at Pockerley through the 1900s Town and Pit Village to the 1950s at Spain's Field Farm. Heritage transport carries visitors around the site, and Father Christmas has his grotto at Rowley Station Goods Yard, with grotto visits, Breakfast with Father Christmas and the new Paws with Claus bookable separately. The daytime event is included in museum admission, and separate ticketed Christmas Evenings run on six dates in December.
