On Saturday 23 and Sunday 24 November, 11am - 4pm, Queen Victoria and her consort Prince would once again like to invite you to join them at the Hull Museums Quarter for a joyous Victorian Christmas celebration.

Join us and immerse yourself in the magic of Christmas past with a wonderful selection of activities!

Main activities:

  • Carousel*
  • Horse and carriage rides*
  • Live Music
  • Historical Characters
In addition to the main attractions there will also be:
  • Victorian and Dickensian Characters (BSL)**
  • Traditional Christmas craft activities
  • Storytelling (BSL)**
  • Fairground organ
  • Food and drink stalls
  • Market stalls



A number of pre-bookable relaxed craft sessions and relaxed storytelling sessions will also be on offer each day, designed for children who have a disability, are neurodivergent, or experience anxiety, who would find it difficult to attend the busier drop-in sessions. Spaces are limited and prebooking is essential. Free tickets can be booked here: https://bit.ly/3UOTONF



Get dressed up!
If you’d like, you could come along to the event dressed like a Victorian as you join in the fun! We’ll also have a photo opportunity area with some dress up items and props for you to enjoy.
