At Secret London, we believe that as soon as December rolls around, Christmas mode is activated. A London neighbourhood that also belongs to this school of thought is Elephant Park, who are inviting Londoners to get involved in their 12 Days of Fun with free festive activities and events this December. Most events don’t require signing up in advance, so you can just turn up on the day. Keep reading for the Elephant Park Christmas itinerary!
