Excitement is mounting as award-winning theatrical designer Charlotte Lloyd Webber and her team have begun their fairy tale job of creating the region’s largest indoor Christmas experience at magnificent Bamburgh Castle.
To keep their magic a surprise for visitors, the Castle will be temporarily closed from Monday November 7 while Charlotte and her team from CLW Events transform the Castle’s staterooms in to a whimsical world of festive wonder, ready for The Christmas Kingdom at Bamburgh Castle’s official opening on Saturday November 12.
This year’s theme is The Twelve Days of Christmas. Promising to be one of the best Christmas events in the UK, families and adults alike will be able to leap into an enchanting wonderland of dazzling decorations, twinkling trees and festive flourishes including swans-a-swimming, pipers playing, gold rings and of course a partridge in a pear tree!
Owner of Bamburgh Castle Francis Watson-Armstrong said: “There’s a wonderful festive feel in the air which means Charlotte and her team have returned to Bamburgh to work their Christmas magic!
“We are so excited to see this year’s experience, The Twelve Days of Christmas. It promises to be absolutely fantastic and mesmerising for all ages and will get everyone into the Christmas spirit.
“So that Charlotte and her team can keep this year’s experience a complete surprise for our visitors, the Castle will be temporarily closed from Monday November 7th until The Twelve Days of Christmas grand opening on Saturday November 12”.
Charlotte Lloyd Webber said: “We are very excited to be returning to beautiful Bamburgh Castle to create The Twelve Days of Christmas that will be utterly enthralling for visitors.
“Bamburgh Castle simply oozes history, drama and more than a little magic. We are excited to be weaving this into the fabulous festive wonderland that is The Twelve Days of Christmas, with added shine and sparkle from Bamburgh’s own rich history.”
