A Christmas journey around the world
Room by room, the château transforms into a series of enchanting stopovers: automatons, lights and lavish decorations carry you from one continent to the next.
As night falls, the garden lights up and the façade comes alive with a monumental 1,000 m² light show.
Meanwhile, younger visitors set off on a treasure hunt, their little traveller’s passport in hand.
Allow more than 4 hours to make the most of your visit.
Your ticket includes the Christmas decorations in the château, the illuminated garden, the monumental light show, the treasure hunt, marshmallow toasting by the fire, the charity postcard workshop and the wishing grove. The ice rink and the immersive show « L’Odyssée Nordique » are available at an extra charge.
“At Christmas, our family home takes on a new face each year, without ever losing what gives it its soul: the joy of welcoming and sharing. This edition becomes the starting point of a journey around the world, where each room opens a window onto a new horizon.”
Ascanio de Vogüé — Owner and Manager of Vaux-le-Vicomte
