Christmas at the Ulster Folk Museum

This Christmas, wander the snowy, cobbled streets of the Ulster Folk Museum for a festive season filled with memories and traditions☃️🧣

Our authentic cottages and exhibit buildings will be decorated for the season, with lights, wreaths and cosy fires. Settle in for a festive story in the Town School or an old, silent Christmas movie in our authentic Picture House. Listen out for carol singers, plus seasonal sounds from a brass band and harpist.

There'll be traditional Christmas crafts for all ages, plus willow star making in the Weaving Shed. Take in the scents of nut roasting, make cinnamon toast over the open fire, and taste traditional Christmas cake. Warm up with a festive drink, like mulled wine or a hot toddy, in the Parochial Hall (please drink responsibly). Meet our makers as they demonstrate age-old crafts, say hello to the donkeys, and pick up last-minute Christmas gifts in the museum shop.

Step away from the rush of modern life and discover Christmas as it once was - slower, nostalgic, and filled with tradition.
