Vauxhall brings the festive fun in a wonderfully eclectic way — alpacas, drag queens, glowing light trails, craft workshops, unlimited karaoke, you name it.
Whether you’re planning family-friendly days out, after-work activities, wholesome weekends or slightly chaotic nights with your mates, there is something for everyone.
From wreath-making at the City Farm to bauble marbling in Bonnington Square, our guide gathers all the creative and brilliantly weird things to do in Vauxhall this Christmas.
Wreath Making at Vauxhall City Farm
Get hands-on with festive foliage at London’s friendliest farm. You’ll learn how to build a proper wreath (none of that flimsy supermarket business), sip something warm, and craft surrounded by alpacas giving you encouraging side-eye. One of Vauxhall’s most popular Christmas traditions — back and blooming.
Bauble Making at Bonnington Café
A cosy craft session in one of Vauxhall’s most-loved community cafés. Create beautifully marbled ceramic baubles using centuries-old techniques, then take home decorations that look expensive, handmade, and very “I’m actually quite artistic.” Perfect for gifts or bragging rights.
SLEVEN Sleigh Bougie Extravaganza
Vauxhall’s most unhinged Christmas tradition returns — a day of workouts, drag, bottomless drinks, chaos and glitter. Start wholesome with a FREE festive WOD, then slide straight into awards, prosecco and a full drag dinner party that absolutely does not hold back.
Winter Lights and Santa’s Grotto at Vauxhall City Farm
A full festive takeover: glowing light trails, meet-and-greet with Santa, crafting with Elfie, a Christmas market, Nana’s Nightcap bar and plenty of fluffy animals to pat. It’s the ultimate family-friendly Christmas day out — right here in SE11.
