WINTER WOOD 2024

With a brilliant new story

 There is a wood in the wildest part of Cornwall

Where the land meets the swirling sea

And here in the middle of winter

You will find old magic in the trees

 

Step this way…

Wander into wonder

Experience the wild magic

Of the woodland in midwinter.

 

Rogue returns to Tehidy Woods, North Cliffs this December with a wild-magic celebration of winter; Winter Wood!

Follow the path into the Winter Wood and lose yourself in the dreamscape of nature.

Gather, as Old Man Winter weaves flying deer magic with ember tales, and star songs of night’s mysteries as he catches wishes whispered to the changing winds.

Created by Cornwall’s award winning immersive and highly visual Rogue Otherworld,

Winter Wood is an immersive adventure for families and those who seek midwinter magick!

The star-studded crown of Rogue’s seasonal celebrations in Tehidy Woods, Winter Wood is a bewitchment to behold; as we pass, full of wonder, from one year into the possibilities of the next.

Pass through the Woodland Gate and follow the twisting path…

Let the faeries and woodland guide you to the Midwinter Grotto

Where Old Man Winter will welcome you into the magic of a story,

Catch your wish and weave your imaginations with the wonders of winter.

Experience the winter magic at the wild heart of Cornwall, with a more sparkling spirit than ever –

“My excitement for Winter Wood just grows and grows, to gather together, to celebrate nature, and to embrace the seasons, the turning of the planets and our midwinter dreams.”

– Old Man Winter

Twice listed in the Guardian Newspaper’s Top 10 Christmas Walks, and winner of multiple Awards, Winter Wood is a unique festive marvel, set in the heart of the Winter Wood, it is part exhilarating walk through the trees and part gathering in a warm tent where a magical story comes to life.

There will be winter faeries in the woods, who sing, weave wonder and even dance with fire!

There will be a gathering in the wishing trees with Old Man Winter.

There will be the legendary faerie that is Klump!

There will be a brilliant new winter show told by Old Man Winter, with music, dance, song, shadow play and other winter wonders in our warm marquee.

There will be free hot chocolates for the children served by the faeries before the show.

There is a reasonably priced bar that serves delicious hot chocolates for the adults, mulled wine and mince pies, snacks, crisps and other festive treats.

At the end, we’ll all sing together, a song of winter dreams.

Each Winter Wood lasts around 2 hours and includes an enchanting walk that embraces the Winter Wood and the Cornish winter weather before you arrive at the heated marquee. 

The show will go ahead in all but the most extreme conditions, so dress for the weather and the magic of winter!

     Accessibility

    Winter Wood events are accessible for most wheelchair users and rugged buggies.

    There is also vehicle access near to the marquee where the main part of the event takes place, for those who should need (this misses the walk through the woods).
