The gardens are set to shine even brighter this winter as we unveil our Christmas Night Train, an enchanting illuminated steam train ride around the woodland gardens after dark, on the weekends of 29-30 November and 6-7 December. The Christmas Night Train journey will be approximately 30 minutes long.
For the first time ever, visitors will be able to enjoy the Christmas Night Train on Exbury’s Rhododendron Line Steam Railway, gliding past twinkling lights and festive displays while the rest of Exbury sleeps. Promising to be a highlight for families and railway enthusiasts alike, trains will run at 6pm, 6.45pm and 7.30pm. Each departure will feature a personal send-off from Father Christmas. Festive food and drink will be on offer each night.
Christmas Night Train tickets are £20 per person, or £18 for Friends of Exbury members. Ticket price includes admission to the railway via the gardens (which are not otherwise open).
Meet Father Christmas in the Evening tickets including a special festive gift for each child are available separately and are not included in the Christmas Night Train tickets.
