Celebrate Christmas with a Twist at Ripley's Believe It or Not! London
Fed up with mince pies and the Christmas crackers already?
If so, why not take a break from the same old traditional festivities by heading to the Ripley's Alternative Christmas Festival in the heart of Piccadilly Circus.
The capital's most bizarre attraction is playing host to a series of quirky Christmas events during December.
Visitors to central London can enjoy some respite from the shopping and preparation and indulge in some festive fun with an unconventional edge including a mini Santa and a giant snow globe.

There will also be a special appearance by real live reindeer.
