Ahead of its launch on Friday, November 18, some fun facts have been revealed about Sony Music's spectacular Christmas at Blenheim Palace.

The festive extravaganza, which runs until January 2, 2023 at the UNESCO World Heritage Site, features a magical outdoor illuminated light trail, the creative re-telling of the story of The Snow Queen inside the Palace and an artisan Christmas Market.

The outdoor light trail will feature:

• 200 candle flames each night
• 8 Neon Penguins
• 3000 spheres in Aurora, artwork which recreates the Northern Lights
• 500,000 baubles will decorate the interior of the palace
• Over 80 Christmas Trees inside the palace for the Kingdom of the Snow Queen

Firmly positioned as one of the highlights of the UK festive calendar, visitors can enjoy wandering the Palace's picture-perfect gardens filled with Christmas cheer as over a million lights and seasonal sounds fill the air. Look forward to some time together with family and friends as you discover glittering tunnels of light, dancing lakeside reflections and trees drenched in jewel-like colour.

Also at Blenheim Palace this Christmas will be The Kingdom of The Snow Queen, an indoor trail which will be reimagined within the State Rooms of Britain's Greatest Palace.

Talented independent street food vendors bring a delicious twist to tempting treats on offer. To make it perfectly festive, complete your walk under the stars with a *spiced winter warmer or *hot chocolate shared with someone special and why not toast a *marshmallow over the open fire.

The Christmas Market, which runs from November 18 to December 18, will enable visitors to escape the bustle of the high street and soak up the yuletide atmosphere with up to 80 traders offering a fabulous range of festive treats, from designer-makers and artisan food and drink producers.

Your very merriest Christmas starts here. Limited capacity with timed entry. Plan now to secure the date and time of your choice.
