Winter Lights at Corfe Castle 2023

For one night only, explore the ruins of Corfe Castle lit under warm glowing lights with the stars above you.

Make a special Christmas wish at the wishing bridge. Gather around a fire pit to toast marshmallows whilst catching up with friends or family.

Braziers and festoon lights will illuminate the paths but we recommend you bring a torch with you for the walk from the car park and to spot uneven ground in the ruins.

The castle will be open until 8pm, weather permitting. Last entry will be at 7:30pm.

This event will coincide with the Corfe Castle Village light switch-on, taking place at 5pm.

This event is free, but normal admission charges apply for the venue.
Suitability: Children must be accompanied by a responsible adult.
What to bring and wear: Although pathways will be lit, please bring a torch for the walk from the car park and for your walk around the ruins. Wear warm, weather appropriate clothing and please wear sturdy footwear.
Accessibility: Please be aware that there are steps, steep slopes, and uneven paths in the castle. There is wheelchair access to the Outer Bailey only.
