Celebrate the festive season in style with a visit to The Royal Yacht Britannia during their Christmas Weekend, 7 & 8 December. Explore the State Apartments, where the Royal Family spent holidays, honeymoons and entertained prime ministers and presidents. See the State Drawing Room and Dining Room, adorned with stunning decorations from 7 December for the holiday season.
Head below decks to explore the Crew’s Quarters where the 220 Royal Yachtsmen would work, sleep and relax during their travels all over the world and enjoy a complimentary Christmas treat of a glass of mulled wine and buttery shortbread.
Discover stories of life aboard for both the Royal Family and the crew with your complimentary audio guide, also available in a children’s version. Remember to spot all the corgis across the five decks in the Christmas Cuddly Corgi Treasure Hunt!
Look out to the waterfront views from the Royal Deck Tearoom, where warming soups and delicious sandwiches as well as indulgent cakes and scones, all made on board in the Royal Galleys, await.
