What should I wear to Winter Wonderland?

Warm clothes, gloves and a hat are ideal. Also, sturdy footwear with a good grip suitable for walking on snow is recommended. Timberland type boots or Wellington boots are perfect, if not, trainers are fine but they are likely to get wet, so please bring a change of footwear.



When visiting Hyde Park Winter Wonderland in London, the key is "Strategic Layering" to handle the combination of cold evening air and the physical warmth generated by walking and indoor attractions. You should start with a moisture-wicking base layer (like Heattech), followed by a warm mid-layer like a wool sweater or fleece. Your outer layer should be a waterproof and windproof coat, as London winters are often damp. Because you will be standing for long periods in queues and walking across the gravel-and-dirt park grounds, sturdy, waterproof boots with thick soles are the most important item; trainers or thin-soled shoes will leave your feet freezing very quickly. Accessories are mandatory: a warm hat that covers your ears, a scarf, and gloves are essential, especially if you plan on going into the "Magical Ice Kingdom" or the "Ice Bar" where temperatures are kept at -10°C. If you intend to go on the high-speed rides, consider a neck warmer or "buff" to protect your face from the wind. In 2026, many visitors also carry small power banks to keep their phones charged for photos, as the cold weather can drain mobile batteries significantly faster than usual.
