Longleat defends £50 lantern festival tickets
Western Daily Press
|October 24, 2025
ONE of the West Country's leading Christmas attractions has moved to justify its £50 peak ticket price after complaints online.
Longleat’s Festival of Light event is a hugely popular spectacle each winter, with the iconic estate transformed with huge lantern sculptures depicting everything from landmarks to storybook characters, and more.
And while some feel that the cost of the trail, especially for a family, is more expensive than they would like, the safari park in Wiltshire says that you get a lot for the price of a ticket during your visit.
This year’s Festival of Light theme is focused on ‘British icons’ including Bristol’s very own Wallace Gromit and other Aardman characters.
Organisers state on the Longleat website: “Meet fan-favourite characters from Shaun the Sheep, Wallace and Gromit and more while you journey to some of the UK’s most famous landmarks, marvel at native wildlife and sights - all spectacularly reimagined in lantern form?
