Six weeks of markets, rides, ice skating and evening lights, pulling millions of visitors through Hyde Park. A fixed-fare car with room for the pushchair and the shopping beats the walk from the nearest tube with tired kids in tow — any day, any time, same price.
19 Nov 2026 – 3 Jan 2027
Hyde Park's Christmas market, rides, ice rink and evening light shows run for six weeks straight — one of London's biggest single draws of the year, family-heavy, and very different logistically from a single ticketed event. Prams, layers, sledges, market bags and tired kids all point the same way: door to door beats the walk from the nearest tube.
Spans from Hyde Park Corner toward Marble Arch — tell us which end you're heading to and we drop as close as road access allows.
Different pattern to a single show — repeat local visits and one-off day trips from further out, at all hours from opening to the evening light shows.
MPV space for pushchairs and market bags without a boot-Tetris exercise on the way home.

FAQ
The park itself is free to enter; rides, the ice rink, the Christmas market stalls and the bigger shows are ticketed separately. Either way, getting a family and pushchair there and back is the part we help with.
We agree the best entrance for where you're heading inside — the Winter Wonderland covers a large stretch of Hyde Park, so tell us at booking whether you're closer to the Hyde Park Corner or Marble Arch end and we'll route there directly.
Yes — the fare is the same at 6pm as at midday, and the same on a Saturday in December as a quiet Tuesday. No evening premium, no weekend loading.
Yes — saloon and executive both take a pushchair folded in the boot, and the MPV is the better choice if you're bringing sledges, extra layers or coming back with market shopping.
There's no subscription product, but each booking is quoted fresh and fixed — book as many separate visits as you like, each one priced the same way.
Traffic around Park Lane and the Bayswater Road builds heavily on weekends in December — the fare doesn't change, but booking your slot a day or two ahead is sensible on Saturdays especially.
Every Rushxo pickup includes 60 minutes of complimentary waiting time from your scheduled slot, at no extra charge, and your fixed fare does not change if your visit runs longer than planned.
Book a single trip or several across the run — each one priced the same way.
