My Christmas Trails

The new illuminated Christmas trail will light up Roundhay Park in Leeds between 8 December 2022 and 1 January 2023.

Aglow with colour, the new light artworks will lead friends and family on a trail around the city park, which is one of the largest in Europe. Those on the festive trail can look upwards at the Neon Tree, a beautiful multicoloured feature with interwoven branches, designed by Culture Creative.

Another highlight of the new trail has been designed by world renowned artists Jigantics. The 'Lilies' light installation will be floating elegantly on the water in Roundhay Park, bursting with imagination and energy.

Matthew Findlay, Head of UK trails for Sony Music/Raymond Gubbay Ltd, said: “We are hugely excited by the plans for this year's new trail, with artists creating beautiful installations which will provide a real 'wow' factor for 2022.”

Christmas at Roundhay Park offers friends and family the chance to create everlasting memories, wandering between striking light installations all carefully choreographed to a soundtrack of much-loved festive music. 

From the flickering fire garden, wild wicker sculptures to magical and whimsical light creations, it's 'instant Christmas' providing picture perfect moments all the way.

Independent street food vendors bring a delicious twist with tasty treats on offer. Complete your walk under the stars with a *spiced winter warmer or *hot chocolate shared with friends and family. Everyone loves toasting a marshmallow over an open fire and the artisan *marshmallow stall gives visitors the chance to warm their hands and enjoy this sweet outdoor tradition.

Christmas at Roundhay Park provides a special way to celebrate the festive season with an unmissable outdoor experience.
