Hyde Park Winter Wonderland returns to London from 19 November 2026 to 3 January 2027, with a new Gandeys K-Pop Dragon Circus, a Neverland-themed Magical Ice Kingdom and selected £1 off-peak entry tickets. Here’s what families should know before booking.
New for 2026: Gandeys K-Pop Dragon Circus
The new circus combines K-Pop-inspired music and staging, dragons, magic and daring circus performances. This is a separate ticketed attraction within Winter Wonderland; a £1 park entry ticket does not include the circus. The organisers advertise off-peak child circus tickets from £10.45. Check the exact session and total cost when booking.
When are the £1 entry tickets available?
The organisers advertise 500,000 £1 off-peak admission tickets for selected Monday–Thursday sessions in November 2026, with no additional booking fee. Look for the green ‘best value’ time slots on the official booking calendar. This is not a blanket £1 entry price for every date, and rides, shows, food and activities cost extra. Every visitor needs an entry ticket.
Another offer gives one free admission ticket for each £25 spent on eligible attractions, rides, games, credit or food packages when booked online together in advance. Entry tickets must be included in the same transaction for the discount to apply.
What else is new at Winter Wonderland?
- Magical Ice Kingdom presents Neverland: a Peter Pan and Tinker Bell-inspired ice-sculpture experience in partnership with Great Ormond Street Hospital Charity.
- Gandeys K-Pop Dragon Circus: a new circus show for 2026.
- Show Town Spectacular Package: includes the circus, Giant Wheel, ride and game credit and a qualifying free park entry; advertised adult packages start from £40.20.
- Ride & Game Credit: prepay credit online for use on rides and games.
Family budget and access planning
Low-cost park entry does not mean a low-cost day if you add multiple attractions. Set a budget before choosing rides and shows. For families managing sensory sensitivities or mobility requirements, check the event’s accessibility guidance, the individual circus show’s sound and lighting information, and the availability of quieter off-peak slots before buying. No specific relaxed performance has been confirmed here.
