Chiswick House Christmas

For the very first time, this architectural masterpiece throws open its doors at Christmas for a festive journey like no other.

Duchess Georgiana of Devonshire is throwing the most fabulous party in town, and you’re invited to join her for a fantastical celebration. Inspired by the beloved 1780 carol Twelve Days of Christmas, the historic rooms of Chiswick House will be transformed into an imagined Georgian world of revelry, beauty, and excess. Visitors will journey through exquisitely styled rooms, dramatic tableaux, bespoke sculptures, and sumptuous floristry – culminating in a grand Twelfth Night banquet installation.

For younger guests, Father Christmas awaits in his charming 18th-century grotto, ready to share a festive story and a small gift.

Created by the visionary team behind celebrated heritage productions at Castle Howard and Kensington Palace, CLW Event Design brings their theatrical mastery to Chiswick for the first time, in partnership with Underbelly, the producers behind Cabaret at the Kit Kat Club and Macbeth starring Ralph Fiennes.

This is a rare opportunity to explore Chiswick House as it was meant to be: a place for entertainment, imagination, and awe.

CLW Event Design

Co-founders Charlotte Lloyd Webber, Theatre Producer, and Adrian Lillie, Costume Designer, established CLW Event Design with the aim to create and deliver extraordinary installations and live events at heritage properties across the UK.

The CLW Event Design team are a collective of theatrical practitioners, designers and artists whose long experience, thoughtful research, exacting quality and original designs have earned them a national reputation for outstanding visitor experiences.

Each event design works closely with the existing elements of the environment – whether a stately home interior, parkland or private house and garden – and provides important public venues the opportunity to bring their communities together in the knowledge that more conscious consumers now want to share time and money with family and friends at meaningful, experiential events.

CLW Event Design focuses on sustainable project production working alongside clients to improve environmental footprint.

Current projects include Christmas 2025 installations at Castle Howard, Kensington Palace, Bamburgh Castle, Beaulieu Palace House, Polesden Lacey House.
