Battersea Power Station has transformed into a festive destination until 7 January 2024.
The building’s turbine halls and the wider riverside neighbourhood has been decked out in sparkling lights with more than 120 Christmas trees, including a 40ft tree in Malaysia Square dressed with over 2,000 baubles. Supersize decorations including a larger-than-life bauble installation in the riverside piazza and a trail of giant candy canes on Electric Boulevard offer the perfect opportunity to capture festive selfies with friends and family.
A series of festive arts and crafts sessions with options for both adults and children offer the chance to get creative over the holidays, including a floral table setting workshop from London’s oldest and most prestigious florists, Moyses Stevens, Christmas card and wrapping paper decorating, as well as bauble painting and Macrame wreath making. There are also seasonal games, face painting and story telling for all to enjoy. Plus, Father Christmas will also be making special appearances throughout December, perfect for kids to hand-deliver their Christmas wish lists.
Sam Cotton, Head of Asset Management at Battersea Power Station Development Company said, “Battersea Power Station offers a magical day out for all this festive season with a great mix of shops, bars, restaurants and entertainment venues, the return of Glide, our riverside ice rink, live performances and creative workshops for all ages. There really is something for everyone and we look forward to welcoming visitors to the riverside neighbourhood this winter.”
