Celebrate the festive season in Jersey with Condor Ferries

With fast ferry sailings from Poole on board Condor Ferries' state-of-the-art ship, Condor Liberation, visitors to Jersey simply need to board the ship, sit back, relax and take in the stunning scenery as they cross the English Channel and look forward to the festival delights that awaits them. 

The biggest Christmas Winter Wonderland the Island has ever seen, Enchanted Narnia is being brought to visitors courtesy of multi-award winning production company, Secrets Beneath. Throughout December, visitors are invited to step through the wardrobe into a magical world filled with surprises, journeying through the enchanted wood in the falling snow, meeting extraordinary characters along the way, who will guide them to meet Father Christmas. Visitors can also look forward to exploring a festive craft village. 

Tickets for a family of four cost £36. Visit www.jerseywonderland.com for more information.

Attentively, visitors can look forward the Fête dé Noué (3rd - 6th December). A key part of the Winter Festival, Fête dé Noué is Jersey’s very own Christmas celebration, featuring a host of seasonal activities and events to get visitors and Islanders' into the spirit of the season.

The Fête dé Noué commences with the Spirit of Christmas Market, filled with charming Christmas chalets where local craft workers sell gifts and decorations, based in the Royal Square.  There is also a visiting Norman French Market where visitors can browse the stalls for crêpe pans, Norman cider, fruit and nuts, handmade soap, biscuits and honey. 

The Fête dé Noué will also see the launch of Ice Skate Jersey at the Fort Regent, where the whole family can enjoy the festive indoor ice rink, while Father Christmas at the Fort will give children the chance to meet him and choose a gift from his very own ‘workshop'.  

The Fête dé Noué will culminate in the spectacular Christmas Parade, featuring floats, live music and street theatre, guaranteed to give visitors that festive feeling.  

Once back on board, passengers can take advantage of fantastic deals in the duty-free store, Adore. With a wide variety of gifts including gadgets, watches, fragrance and skincare products, passengers can pick-up on any last minute presents, as well as stock up on their favourite party drinks with great value multi-buy deals on big brand wines and spirits, saving up to 40% on the average UK high street or supermarket prices.
