Santa Splash
Come on down to the Keswick Boat landings to watch our teams of Santas and Elves race on Derwentwater.
The event starts at 12 noon.
The Santa Splash marks the start of Keswick Live Advent. This usually combines festive events and window displays but like last year, things will again be a little different in 2021. There will be a festive events diary, a Christmas window walking trail, as well as the usual vote for your favourite window. Instead of lighting one window for each day of advent all the windows will be lit each day from the 1st December to the 3rd January from 4pm to 10pm.
There are 14 Christmas windows with a map and directions below (including a downloadable pdf) to guide you round the trail. We hope the window trail will be a wonderful, outdoor activity that everyone can enjoy.
