With decorations throughout the Museum alongside all-new interpretation on the traditions of the Roaring 20s, we’re thrilled to invite you to a cosy Christmas in our historic 400-year-old building!
Wind your way through our festive rooms, and learn about what people ate for Christmas, traditions of the era, and how Christmas dinner was set!
Take your time to decorate a reproduction Christmas card from the Museum’s collection, read a story in a comfy nook and write your Christmas list surrounded by toys from the past.
The Museum of Cambridge Christmas experience is now open until Monday January 5 2026. Visit a 1920s Christmas alongside all our wonderful objects on display, including our temporary exhibition, ‘Legacies of Windrush in Cambridge’. Standard entry with donation to the Museum (an independent charity) is £7.70, or £6 for concessions. Children 16 and under always enter free.
