Berkhamsted Festival of Light

Sunday 22 November 2026

It’s the Berkhamsted Festival of Light, and the High Street will be filled with live entertainments, food and drink stalls and fairground rides. Don’t miss visiting St Peter’s Church, and see the historic building lit up by thousands of candles in a breathtaking display! There will also be the Elves’ Posting House in the Court House for children’s Christmas wishes, the official switch-on of the lights, and Santa’s parade.

During the town street party, Berkhamsted Castle Trust will have a stall at the Community Hub Volunteer Village inside the Civic Centre. Come and say hello and find out more about supporting our Save Castle Fields appeal. Let’s get together to bring light into the Berkhamsted community this winter!
