A magical outdoor trail has been announced for Christmas at an Oxfordshire palace.
The trail will run at Blenheim Palace from November 17 to January 1 and include features like ‘giant chandeliers made to look like they have fallen from an invisible ceiling in the sky’.
Other additions are Floating Candles, Neon Singing Trees and a 40-metre tunnel filling with more than 700 homemade stars.

Blenheim Palace CEO, Dominic Hare, said: “Our fantastic ongoing partnership with Sony Music enables us to present the beauty of the Palace and its gardens at a time of year so precious to families and loved ones.
“This year’s outdoor trail has some fantastic new features delivered with passion and imagination, which will provide an unforgettable experience for our visitors.”
There will also be opportunity to sample festive food in the East Courtyard or purchase a ‘spiced winter warmer’.
A contemporary take on the Sleeping Beauty fairytale will await inside the Palace for this year’s indoor trail.
The retelling of the story will allow visitors to explore transformed rooms like the Great Hall and the candle-lit bedchamber.
Blenheim Palace is home to the 12th Duke and Duchess of Marlborough and is the birthplace of Sir Winston Churchill.
Tickets can be purchased online and there is limited capacity with timed entry to both trails so early booking is advised.
